Helping your children buy a home can be a generous way to give them a head start, but it’s important to protect your own financial position too.
Whether the money is a gift or a loan should be documented from the outset. It’s also worth considering what could happen if circumstances change, including a separation, sale of the property or difficulties with repayment.
Putting clear arrangements in place gives everyone greater certainty and helps avoid confusion or disputes later on.
