    Hi folks

    Myself & Brother are buying a BTL house
    He will come up with the 30% deposit required

    Is it possible that the mortgage is in my name only, and him providing the deposit
    Or will banks want to see us both applying on mortgage

    Do you qualify for the mortgage amount based on your earnings alone?

    He would have to gift you the deposit, write a statement saying that he has done so and disclaim any rights to the house to satisfy normal lending rules. Otherwise he has to be on the mortgage and hence meet lending requirements.

    Depending on how high the deposit is, a gift could result in a CAT liability.
