I am considering bankruptcy as I have huge debts and house in negative equity. I have cottage in grounds of my house (same title) and receive rental income which makes the mortgage affordable. Would OR take this as income or allow it against mortgage?

Debbie, there was a thread recently which I cant find right now, that involved someone else with quite a high mortgage.

Hi Debbie,

How many dependants do you have?

Thanks for your reply, but I am concerned that my mortgage would be see as excessive - mortgage is £2300,
2nd charge loan of £550 (currently on reduced payment of £300)
less £800 rent

Actual cost of accommodation is £2050 - quite a large house in negative equity. I can afford this, but I could rent a family home in this area for £1200 - £1400 per month. It is my family home, and has been for 10 years. Would I be forced to sell home? there are 3 more charges on property - none of them would get any proceeds if forced sale.


Any knowledge in this area would be really helpful.

Hi Debbie and welcome.

I would say it will be classed as income, however, you will end up filling out a financial statement with income and expenditure.

Your mortgage is a normal 'allowable' expenditure.
