One option is to try and accept a lower deposit. Many sellers will agree to a lower deposit or even no deposit for a first time buyer or 100% mortgage.

You can also agree a simultaneous exchange and completion as no deposit is required for this however neither party will be tied in until completion actually takes place and it can be risky if sellers change their mind at the last moment
