Yes, many buyers in Cambridge use gifted deposits to get a mortgage.
This means a family member gives you money towards your deposit without expecting repayment.
For example, a parent might gift £20,000 to help with a 10% deposit on a £200,000 home.
As long as the money is a true gift and the paperwork confirms this, most lenders will accept it.
A mortgage broker in Cambridge, like ourselves, can check which lenders support this and help prepare everything the lender needs.
If you’re buying a home in Cambridge with a gifted deposit, most lenders will want the funds to come from a close family member, accepted relationships often include:
The gift must be unconditional and supported by a signed declaration.
Our mortgage advisors in Cambridge can check whether your deposit setup is acceptable and help with the paperwork.
A gifted deposit is unlikely to affect your mortgage offer, as long as it’s declared correctly.
Lenders in Cambridge are used to seeing this type of support, especially for first time buyers.
They’ll just need confirmation that the funds are a gift and not tied to any repayment terms.
Mortgage advice in Cambridge can help ensure this is all handled at the right time, with the correct documents in place.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
There may be a fee for mortgage advice. The fee is up to 1% but a typical fee is £495.

Excellent Customer Service from initially Dan who arranged our Lifetime Mortgage. The members of the Admin Team were always friendly and helpful. Special mention to Kerry Bewell for her willingness, post-completion, to help when needed. I would definitely recommend UK Moneyman to others.

We used money man to help us find a mortgage for our first house nearly 7 years ago. They were brilliant at helping us navigate as self employed people. We are just about to use them for our next house!

Ami has been great. She explained everything clearly and answered all of our questions (silly or not). Communication was great, genuinely couldn't recommend this service or our advisor Ami more.

UK Moneyman have helped with my mortgage and remortgage for many years. Always really helpful and knowledgeable. My latest remortgage was done with Conor, who was great at making sure I was getting not just the best deal, but the right deal for my needs.

I found Warren Bailey to be a very helpful and knowledgeable advisor when I discussed with him the potential options for a retirement mortgage . He had contacted me within a day of my seeking an initial conversation with him , and he reassured me there were lenders out there who would consider a mortgage paid out of pension , despite my own bank nort even talking to me as I was over 70 ! Within a couple days Warren had led me through the onboarding process , had explained what documents were needed and had found me a lender suited to my requirements. An excellent experience, and I would recommend him strongly to people looking for a retirement mortgage, and generally . Victor Abrams
