    Hi.
    My wife and I are applying for a mortgage, we have 20,000 deposit that has been gifted and have been paying rent for the last seven years.
    I have spoken to one brokers and they want a record of savings for the deposit whereas we haven't saved the deposit.
    I'm just wondering is this likely to affect our application?

    If you get a letter from whoever gifted it to say its not repayable and your rent payments are more than your new mortgage payments you should be fine
