Dont we all I hear you say! My position at the moment is I need 160000euro to buy a house. My partner has her house for sale and so do I.One viewer each in 12 months!! We both work full time.We recently approached B.O.I. for a mortgage but she said between our two wages we would not get the sum we looked for. By the way we also have 20k of a deposit.The fact that my partner is 52 is holding us back cos we can only get a 18 year mortgage hence the repayments are much higher than say a 30 year mortgage.The thing is we dont really want a mortgage at all if we could borrow the money until one of our houses sell.So the question is how do we come by that money until one of our properties sells?
