I presume you have never been ? Yeah it’s great. The other week he was claiming I lived in a town near Glasgow which I don’t lol. Think he was tracking my IP but can’t even do that right.

I find it hard to believe house prices won’t continue to drop due to mortgage rates and an increasingly bad economic outlook for the country. We will be buying next year either way. House prices will be sustained by low availability because now is a bad time to sell. Low availability will create lots of competition for the houses that are available. So you'll be buying with a sh*t deal either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very rude as per. No idea why you have such a bee in your bonnet today. At least now you’ve finally admitted I live in Glasgow, not what you were claiming last week lol. I can afford to buy , there’s 2 of us so isn’t too bad, just I’m still young and was out the country this year so wasn’t the right time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling his issue isn’t about him buying a place, he doesn’t seem to like others being able to afford a house. There isn’t any other explanation for his comments.

What’s the issue lol, you posted Halifax data saying prices had risen for a month and I pointed out they fell for 6 before that. Both things are true. Now you’re crying again and talking about where I live again as if it’s of any consequence to you. The day you stop being a mod will be a great day for the forum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cellar Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 I'm into my 30s and probably will buy my first place late next year or sometime in 2025. Probably a few things that have contributed to not being in a position to buy sooner, but it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to get through University, get my first proper job, settle into it and didn't need a deposit thanks to 100%+ mortgages. I would imagine the average now is people well into their 30s given the deposit demands ? You are doing well if you can buy in your 20s. 47 minutes ago, cellar said: I'm into my 30s and probably will buy my first place late next year or sometime in 2025. Probably a few things that have contributed to not being in a position to buy sooner, but it is what it is. 30s is pretty standard these days I think. I’m late 20s and fortunately prices are still ok round my way. The south east and London obviously a different kettle of fish. We spent about 20k travelling at the start of the year which obviously was a fair chunk of change but we are still in a decent position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraybentos1 Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 1 minute ago, Barry Fish said: I would imagine most people need / want to get married first or at least have a very stable partner (double income) and that tends to come a lot later in life as well compared to the past. I’m not married but the double income is borderline essential for most people unless they earn a fair bit over average. If I was on my own I’d be renting with a friend or have to buy somewhere further out which isn’t where I want to be. Just a mathematical fact I guess.

Yeah but you’d spend a few grand min furnishing it then pay stamp duty and fees on the new place which would eat into any equity quickly if you’d only been there a couple years. 5 years min is the general rule of thumb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most seem to have sleeping bags and such like but I haven't seen tents. Its desperately sad. You see it more abroad in tents. Its rife in the USA. She seems to have invented the whole thing out of thin air from a UK perspective while trying to be as nasty as possible. Apparently she's laying the groundwork ready for when they evict asylum seekers from their luxury hotel accommodation. Trying to get people all angry in advance!
