I am trying to relocate to a new area (Milton Keynes) on my own within the next two months. I am currently employed in my current location (Coventry) and have been for over a year; however I am trying to find a new job before I pay for a new home. The reason why it has to be in two months is because I am currently renting and that is when the lease runs out.
I am in my late twenties and I would be a first time buyer. I have around £10,000.00 saved for a deposit, and would be looking for a one-bedroom flat which is also suitable for a small dog.
Please can you answer the following questions?
1, Is it at all possible to get a mortgage if you have only just relocated to a new area for a job?
2, Will my saving be enough for a deposit on a property that meets my requirements, if not, if there is another way, how do I go about acquiring the rest of a deposit for a mortgage?
3, How long do it take to get a mortgage and what sort of information will they need?
Also, please can you give me some information on Shared Ownership and how it works; for instance, say that there was a one-bedroom flat for around £35,000.00 30% ownership basis with the rent is approximately £160.00 per month. Is the £35,000.00 the deposit that you would need, or can you place a smaller deposit of say £10,000.00 as the deposit and the rest a mortgage.
Please can you come back to me in regards to the queries as soon as possible and if you have any further advice it would be more than appreciated.
Thanks in advance
