Glad you asked about this, I'm not a fan!

There are lots of issues with no money down deals, not least of which they could well be mortgage fraud.

The reason being is no money down deals typically involve buying a property at say £70k, but telling the mortgage lender it's worth £100k. This means the transaction isn't transparent, so could be classed as mortgage fraud. Investors have been prosecuted for this kind of thing!
