You can always try waiting until you save the extra 8% you need. Unless you've found a house right now that you want...
You can also try "borrowing" money from family/friends if you have someone generous in your family. If you get a letter from the person saying the money is a gift, the bank will accept that. Or if someone you know is willing to be a guarantor on the mortgage, the bank will accept that as well. Not the best options, I know...
