Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor

A great solution for young borrowers and parents who want help to increase their borrowing capacity.
The mortgage will be secured on your home. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

What is a Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor (JBSP) arrangement?

A Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor (JBSP) mortgage allows family members to help a borrower secure a mortgage by adding their income to the affordability assessment, without being named on the property deeds. This means the borrower owns the home outright, while the joint borrowers share responsibility for the mortgage repayments.

What are the benefits?

  • You can increase your mortgage affordability and secure a larger loan than you could on your own
  • Even if you're an older borrower, we offer mortgage terms up to the age of 95, taking various retirement income streams into account to support long-term affordability
  • You may be able to borrow up to 90% of the property's value through the mortgage, depending on the Loan to Value (LTV) of your mortgage.

What is 'Loan to Value'?

This is the size of your mortgage loan divided by the value of your property. For example, if you’re buying a £100,000 property with a £10,000 (10%) deposit, you’ll need a 90% LTV mortgage.

You can see the maximum loan amounts we can offer, depending on the loan to value and the repayment method, for JBSP arrangements below:

With our Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor (JBSP) mortgage, the purchaser owns the property outright, and only their name is on the deeds. However, family members can join as co-borrowers, and their income and financial commitments will be included in the affordability assessment. 
Up to four people can be on a Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor mortgage. That’s two proprietors and up to two joint borrowers.
If you're a first-time buyer purchasing a property worth £425,000 or less, you won’t have to pay stamp duty. The joint borrowers also won’t be liable for stamp duty since they won’t own any part of the property - the purchaser remains the sole proprietor.
With a joint mortgage, all borrowers are legal owners of the property. In a JBSP mortgage, only the sole proprietor is the legal owner, while those supporting act as joint borrowers solely to support affordability.
JBSP is ideal for those moving home, remortgaging, or raising funds for specific purposes like buying out another party to the mortgage or funding essential home repairs.
We can also reverse the traditional JBSP arrangement, so that adult children can help their parents with affordability, allowing them to stay in their home for longer.
If the relationship between borrowers breaks down, it may be challenging to remove joint borrowers from the mortgage. Joint borrowers have no legal claim to the property or any increase in its value over time. However, if the sole proprietor stops making payments, the joint borrowers are responsible for the full mortgage amount, and missed or late payments could negatively affect their credit scores. Any payment issues will appear on all parties' credit reports.
Contact our New Business Team on 03330 140140 or by use the Call Me Back form. They’ll go over some basic information with you including how much you would like to borrow and what for. They’ll need to know about your income and outgoings to make sure you can afford the mortgage and they’ll check that the mortgage meets our lending criteria.
Our standard affordability test is used. This includes the committed expenditure of all households, such as council taxes, loans, credit cards, etc. Additionally, mortgage costs and rent will be taken into account for all borrowers, including non-occupying borrowers.
