Hi folks,
My father is selling his property to me, it's current value is just over 90k. He is offering it to me for 80k so would I still need a deposit?
Thank you.

Yes, if you have a poor credit history, it values up OK, and you use the right lender.
No, if you have a decent credit history, it values up OK, and you use the right lender.I am a Mortgage Broker

How have you established the current value?
Hopefully not from an estate agent's marketing appraisal.
If you follow the idea of a concessionary purchase, a surveyor is going to value the property for the lender and the whole case is going to fall apart if the valuation doesn't stack up.I am a mortgage broker.
