Hi,
my partner and I, both first time buyers, bought a house together a few years ago. We split up last year and were planning on splitting the sale 50/50, but given the current market it could take some time to sell.
She's anxious to move on and has asked me to buy her out.
I went to our original lender PTSB and they won't give me a mortgage on my own but BOI will.
Will I lose my first time buyer status seeing as its the same house and we're just tranferring the house from both my names into just mine? If so, is there a better way to go about this?
I'd greatly appreciate any advice that can be given ..... I'm sure lots of people have gone through something similar.
Thanks
