Hi

As you only have around £5k in equity, and this could arguably be absorbed in costs of sale, the OR would probably offer the beneficial interest to a 3rd party for the nominal sum of £1 plus conveyancing costs of £211. This would enable you to remain in your home as long as you continued to pay the secured lenders.

does the value of the secured loan not wipe out the equity?
