A joint borrower sole proprietor mortgage (JBSP mortgage) is a type of mortgage that allows two people to borrow money together, but only one of them is named on the title deed. This can be a beneficial option for people who want to buy a property but don’t have enough money for a deposit or who have bad credit and need someone with good credit to co-sign the loan.
How does a JBSP mortgage work?
In a JBSP mortgage, the person who is named on the title deed is the sole proprietor of the property. They are responsible for all of the mortgage payments and any other costs associated with owning the property. The other person on the mortgage is the joint borrower. They are not named on the title deed, but they are legally responsible for repaying the mortgage if the sole proprietor defaults.
Who is a JBSP mortgage for?
JBSP mortgages can be a good option for a variety of people, including:
- First-time homebuyers: JBSP mortgages can help first-time homebuyers get onto the property ladder by allowing them to borrow more money than they would be able to on their own.
- People with bad credit: JBSP mortgages can be a good option for people with bad credit who need help getting a mortgage. The joint borrower can help to improve the overall credit score of the application, making it more likely that the mortgage will be approved.
- People who want to help family members buy a home: JBSP mortgages can be a way for parents or other family members to help their loved ones buy a home without having to co-own the property.
What are the pros and cons of a JBSP mortgage?

- JBSP mortgages can help you borrow more money than you would be able to on your own.
