Get ILA for joint borrower, sole proprietor mortgages
What is a joint borrower, sole proprietor mortgage?
A joint borrower, sole proprietor (JBSP) mortgage involves one person (the proprietor) owning the property while others (the joint borrowers) share responsibility for the loan. It’s often used by parents who want to help their children get on the property ladder without becoming co-owners or by partners where one person has a stronger financial standing.
While JBSP mortgages are becoming increasingly popular for helping family members or partners buy property, they come with complex risks. For example, if the primary borrower defaults, everyone is still liable for the debt, which is why lenders require ILA.
That’s where iLA step in to help.
