An elderly friend of mine wants to buy a more suitable smaller house in an different area. There is no mortgage on her existing property. The properties are roughly the same value.
If she uses her savings to purchase the new house this will leave her about €100k short until the sale of her old house goes through. Property here takes about 6 months to sell and in some cases can take up to a year.
She is on half her late husbands occupational pension from which she is able to save a small amount each month.
What are the best options for this 70 yo to get short term finance for 6-12 months?
Thanks,
aj
