-Gifted Deposit - Lenders can accept a deposit that is gifted to you by someone else for example, a parent, grandparents etc. This must be a gift and they will need to sign a gifted deposit letter to confirm they do not expect any repayment or iterest in the property.
-95% Mortgages - You can contribute a 5% deposit of your purchase price for example, if you are purchasing a property for £180,000 your deposit can be £9,000. A few lenders offer this option however each lender has a different set of criteria.
-Shared Ownership - You can buy a share of a home such as 25% or 75%, which will mean you will require only a small deposit and a small mortgage and you wil pay rent on the share that you do not own.
