Twelve months ago my dad gave me half of his house by way of deed of gift so we now own half each. I live there with my wife and son and we pay him rent. Where do I stand on being able to borrow money against my half now to buy his remaining half so I own it fully? Would this be allowed?

you wouldnt borrow money against your half, money borrowed would be against whole property as youd then own all.
You'd have no problem getting a mortgage (assuming your income is high enough), after all your loan to value ration will be very low at 50%.
Should the mortgage company need to repossess they'd have no problem recovering their money.
