Im in a really difficult situation and looking for a bit of help/advice to get out of it
Basically at the time my partner couldnt get a mortgage so its all get taken out in my name and we both lived together
now we have split, she has left and i am left with the mortgage, which i cant afford now!! Selling isnt a viable option as i would need to spend a bit doing it up, and im happy to walk away with nothing!
Can this translate into a trust deed in anyway? or do i have another way out?
Hi gazza8 and welcome to the trust deed forum.
Walking away with nothing is one thing, walking away with a debt is another.
If the property were sold at a loss the mortgage lender could chase you afterwards for that loss. How much is owed on the mortgage? How much do you think the property might sell for?
I think the thing to do right now is to start a dialogue with the mortgage lender so you can work together to find a way forwards that will work for everyone. I might be wrong, but I think you'll find them understanding.
sorry i didnt mean walk away with nothing i ment walk away paying the debt.
I own about 15% on the property, but im looking to get away from the area quickly and looking for a way without selling the house, just to walk off into the sunset
Is this a way to get a trust deed ? like would it be an option?
my husband and i hav split we hav trust deed dont no what to do
Hi,
I am about half way through a trust deed at present.
Will i be able to apply for a mortgage just now or do i have to wait until it completes.
Thanks.
Hi duncanhmmitchell and welcome.
You can apply for a mortgage, but our experience is that new mortgage lending to someone currently in a trust deed is extremely hard to find right now. Explaining your circumstances to a mortgage broker would be a good first step for you if you want to check.
