Can you buy a property with someone else in unequal shares?
Yes you can and an increasing number of people are doing so. There are two forms of joint ownership; joint tenants and tenants in common (click to find out more). When you buy as tenants in common, you can buy in unequal shares but in order to do so, you'll need a Deed of Trust, stating your intentions and how your property's ownership will be shared.
Holding unequal shares in a property is a great way to balance where, for example, you have contributed different sizes of deposit funds and/or are making different-sized contributions towards your monthly mortgage repayments. Your Deed of Trust can be drawn up on a bespoke basis and even include, for example, directions on what will happen when you sell up.
