Entitlement to Property Rights?

Posted on 23 April 2011

Hi, please can you give me some advice as I do not know my entitlements.  I have been living with my boyfriend for 2 years and have been paying £200 a month which is half the mortgage.  My name however is not on the mortgage, but I have spent a lot of money and time on the house and feel it would be unfair
to walk away with nothing.

Please can you give me some advice on what I am entitled to.

Helen,

I have referred your enquiry to our in house solicitors, Rollingsons and you can expect to hear from them in the near future.

Terms & conditions

Your initial mortgage consultation is obligation free. There will be a minimum fee for our mortgage service of £450, of which £150 is payable when you apply, and we will retain the commission from the mortgage lender. Alternatively, you can choose the fee only option which is typically 0.65% of the amount borrowed. The precise amount will depend on your circumstances and mortgage loan amount, and will be discussed and agreed before you make a mortgage application.

YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON A MORTGAGE OR ANY DEBT SECURED ON IT
