TBH ddiand, I really think you will struggle to get a mortgage for £90k on £16k earnings [6x your pay] and if you did, would you be able to afford the repayments?
On a cheaper 2 yr fixed rate the repayments over 13yrs [until you're age 65] are £750pm. Then you've all the other associated costs like council tax and utilities before you even get to living expenses.
I know it's probably not what you want to hear but unless you could get assistance from other sources, perhaps family, or more from the ex, it's probably a non-starter. As for what ex has done with your money I'm not qualified to advise, but I would certainly urge you to see a solicitor about it. To be blunt he has "jobbed" on you & bullied you during your relationship, don't take his word now you're splitting up "he if i put him in a corner i won't get a penny" get your own advice as to what you may be entitled to. Don't let him bully you further.0 -
