If i were to buy a house in joint names with someone who had debt and was considering an IVA would the house have any relevance or be at any risk - i would be the main name on the morgage and putting down the deposit?

Hi charlotte and welcome to the forum

If I were you I would buy it in your own name and only put your partner on the deeds when his/her IVA is concluded. Are you able to raise sufficient finance without relying upon your partner's income?
