Help with a mortgage situation

Posts: 5 Forumite
I am new to the forum and am hoping that someone will have some answer for me, I want to help my son purchase a property, he can borrow in his own right £130,000 but needs another £100,000 to get the property he needs, I have this money in a savings bank account and would like to help him but I need to safe guard my investment. Are there any products out there that can help us

Can you not buy the house under joint names 50% ownership each? He san buy you out at the next remortgage?
Not sure if that’s possible or accurate but sounds plausible?0 -
It depends what your priorities are but you could lend him the money and have a charge against the property to re-coup when he sells or remortgages.I am a Mortgage Broker

Thanks for the reply, only trouble with that route is the costly stamp duty as I am already a home owner and it would be classed as a second home0

You may struggle to get the first charge lender to agree to such a request.0 -
There are lenders (high Street) who will allow a second charge to be registered on the property. A broker will know which onesI am a Mortgage Adviser

He has £20,000 maybe we could push that to £25,0000

I think the place is £250k

£130k mortgage
£100k from bank of M&(or)D.
