Mortgage Deposit Question

    I am hoping to buy early next year with my partner. In addition to savings, part of my deposit will also come from an employment bonus of €30k euro which was paid in a lump sum recently. Will the bank allow me to count this as part of my deposit? Do I need to get some sort of written confirmation from my employer that the payment was an employment bonus and that it was awarded unconditionally aka like a gift.

    They may ask for a letter saying it was a bonus and not a loan that has to be repayed

    Although it's probably included on your p60

    Your main focus will now be 6 months showing rent going out of your account and some monthly savings

    Say away from strip clubs casinos they don't like that ;)

    Don't forget to factor 5k on top of deposit for stamp duty solicitor fees, deeds
