    I doubt mortgage lenders would be willing to lend more if you've got no money for fees etc or any savings.
    Mortgage lenders won't have a clue whether you've got any savings, and will add the fee to the loan if you ask. Attempting to move house with zero savings will run into problems, but the mortgage isn't one of them.
