We bought a large 3 bed semi (new build) under Help to Buy 4 years ago. We have DS1 age 20 and DD 7 & DS2 5. DD & DS2 are sharing a room, DD will be 8 soon and wants her own space.
We had quotes for a loft conversion, which we are happy with. We had a plan with our mortgage advisor to remortgage to pay off the H2B and cover the loft conversion. In the few months since that plan, our house value has dropped by 10% and we would have to borrow over 90% of the current house value to be able to do it.
Does anyone have any experience of applying to borrow against the house with a H2B charge in place? (Sought permission from the relevant HA).
