Ftb needing help

$

Hi I've seen a property that needs doing but need some help. It's on the market for 55000 however because of the work I was advised to bid 40000 and go from there.

When it comes to a mortgage if the property is valued at 55000 in current state and I get offer accepted at 40000 could I borrow more money on top up to potentially 90% of 55000. I feel like I may be confusing the situation but this is the plan.

Offer 40000 ( on this example it is accepted)
But borrow 45000-49000 so extra 5k to 9k to redo and borrowing is under 90% Ltv of 55000. So I get the cash and 40k to seller.

My parents think it can be done from when they had a mortgage in the past but I seem to think i would not be able to lend and the bank will only take on the purchase price of 40000 and I could only lend 36000.

Please help if you can

Thanks x
