If you'll be living with a partner

If you’ll be living with a partner, you’ll need to include them on your application.

This helps us*** understand your household and make sure the options we offer are right for you.

If you own another home

Your Deposit Bridge home must be your primary residence.

If your name is still on the mortgage for another property, for example a former family home after a separation, we may still be able to help on a case-by-case basis.

If this applies to you, get in touch via our LiveChat and we’ll talk it through.

Eligible for our help?

As part of the application, we'll run a soft credit check. This won't affect your credit score.
