House is on the market, and looks like instead of finding an onwards property together we will be going our separate ways. Plan was to port the existing mortgage, taking the low interest rate with us, but that's not going to happen now. Wonder if anyone knows if 1) can one person port the existing mortgage, and is it possible to lower the amount borrowed (I guess not?) 2) how does it actually work on the day of sale, would we have two sets of solicitors who would receive our respective shares of the sale and handle onwards purchases, or would it go through one solicitor? I would be looking to buy my own property, not sure about other half. Any practical advice gratefully received!
