Hi,
Myselft and my partner are buying a second hand property together. My solicitor keeps pushing that we buy as joint tenants but seeing that I am paying for half of the house with cash (from investment property that I just sold) should it not be done as Tenants in common. We are planning on marrying soon so not sure if this makes a difference but I want to make sure that if the relationship were ever to break down that I get back what I put in. I know it's very negative to start off married life with this but my parents separated and things can get really nasty so I would just like to secure my future as it would be very hard for me to start all over again in the property market as I now have a child(with future husband)and my financial situation has changed as I can only work part time now. Another query I have relating to this is about my partners son from a previous relationship. Has he any entitlements? Myself and my partner would like to buy as tenants in common and then Will the property to each other incase of death....Can we do this and what are the negatives, i'm just wondering why my solicitor seems so against it?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
