I know there are some legal bods on here and if any of you could point me and DP in the right direction we'd be very grateful. DP and I live together in his house, which through much hard work he has paid off in full, just before I moved in. We have no DCs, although are likely to get married one day and have children.
I have enough savings for a small house deposit. However, we don't want to move from the security of his home but do need an extension. He used all his savings paying off the last of his mortgage and I want to invest my money somewhere so we're planning for me to pay for the extension if there's a legal way of protecting my lump investment plus a relevant proportion of the value increase over time. Neither of us mind what that looks like as an exact percentage as long as it's fair and are happy to be advised but don't know what kind of solicitor would draw up such an agreement or be able to advise on a fair proportion. We are getting the house valued before and after the building work.
Do these agreements exist, are they legally binding and what kind of solicitor would we need please? Thanks for any help you can provide.
