its a fookin nightmare though... I got that pickle really at the mo...
I have about 50k equity in the place I have now. GF doesnt live with me.
if she moves in here then id have to sort some contract out so that I get my equity underwritten - or she would have to stay as a lodger, which means she then never gains any assets... there no way she can match or get near to my equity as she has spent her cash on other things over the years so thats a no no...
there is the option of selling up and matching deposits and blowing the difference on something else but then id of lost what security I have and be paying out more money in mortgage payments... no win no win!!
plus its sh:t just been mine as she isn't interested in helping out as its not her house!!
nothing's simple.
