Hi, I half own my mothers home after my brother and myself bought it cheap from the local council. My mothers is a 'sitting tenant' and there is no mortgage on the property. I require a secure loan on the property but am unsure if I could apply for one as I don't live at the house but live with my partner, who is in full time employment (I don't currently work). I would like to do this without my brother knowing my financal predicament at home. So my question really is, can i apply for a secure loan against the house with my partner, without getting my brother involved?
Any advice gratefully recieved.
TIA Phil
