Bluestone Mortgages
Comments

Can anyone help? I was offered a DIP by bluestone but my deposit is completely gifted albeit relatively large sum. My bank statement are shocking the past few months as I've been spending a lot due to helping out my dad whilst sick, he's fine now but I'm considering renting for a few months to clear up my accounts before going through with a full mortgage due to the erratic spending not looking good. I'm also worried about my deposit being gifted any advice?0

Explain this and ask them what they would accept as alternative ID. She will receive annual letters for her state pension and other pensions, plus bills, bank statements etc.
But have you asked what they will accept as your MIL doesn't have the standard ID they're asking for. That is something your broker should be finding out for you.2 -
