I've never bought a property with someone - so looking for some advice.
Partner is the mother of my kids, but she's not great with cash at all & for various reasons, she's got nothing to contributre to the house. She actually sold her property when we met - but spend that money ... and I don't quite feel it's fair that I have to 'give' 50% of a property if she blew her contribution.
How do we do this as fair as possible?
I'm guessing youcan only have 50:50 and then a secondary contract stipulating who's put what in?
Is there another way to do this to protect myself?
