Using a pension to buy a house

Posted on 16 June 2009

Can I use my entire pension or part of it to cover the deposit for a social homebuy?

Without knowing your age, the amount of pension and the details about the property you intend to buy, it is very difficult to offer you an answer or even guidance.  I suggest that you speak to an independent mortgage adviser in detail about your situation as they will be able to provide you an answer.
