Perenna Where the deposit has been gifted by a third party, you must obtain a gifted deposit declaration in our standard form from the donor to confirm the deposit is a non-refundable and an unconditional gift and that the third party is not claiming interest and will not claim interest in the property.

A signed copy of the declaration must be held by you prior to completion.

Where the gifted deposit is not being provided by a family member, please contact our Mortgage team by either telephone: 0330 341 2013 or Email: conveyancing@perenna.co.uk

In all cases, you should look to confirm the source of the funds and source of wealth for the amount being gifted through documentary evidence supplied by the donor, along with proof of ID in their name.

This applies equally to new mortgages and remortgages. Applicants for remortgages who have an existing charge securing a gifted deposit must redeem the charge upon completion of their remortgage.

A back-to-back purchase occurs where a Perenna customer is purchasing from a
third party who has purchased the property within the last 6 months at a
discounted/lower purchase price.

A back-to-back remortgage occurs when an applicant purchases or exchanges
contracts at a given price, and then attempts to undertake a re-mortgage with a
lender at an enhanced current value, within 6 months of the original transaction.

Perenna will only lend on back-to-back transactions by exception. Typical
exceptions for a back-to-back transaction would be scenarios such as probate or
purchase/sale by a developer.
