Funny how you pick your stats to suit your argument.
Like a 40 Yr mortgage is a blessing, rather than a cursed necessity.
And don't even start on the self-flagellation of the 16%, like you were on that rate for anything more than a few months.
And did I say that. "everyone was on 50% off"?
Of course I didn't, but you're just joining in with the gobshite mouthbreathers who just invent stuff to suit themselves.
BTW, there were a fugsite more people on a RTB discount than there are now.
But YOU had it sooooo hard, didn't you?

You’ve missed the point, and seem to be in gammon mode.

Take a deep breath.

The 40 year mortgage is for people who wish to live in London, that’s always been an expensive place to buy, so the market created a solution.

Back in the rear of the uk, is it that bad ? No

Yeah they can’t imagine a young couple on 50k a year combined buying a house for 150k

Or working weekends to finish doing it up and paying it off faster.

Liverpool the city of culture.

Imagine having to travel 5 miles on a bus from your 80k lovely little house to work in the city on £50k

Not necessary to us.

All just vehicles to keep the housing market as it is, so that house builders can keep land - banking and profiting, and old farts can brag about their squillion-squid house (y)

Ate you seriously trying to say it's no harder now than it was, for the VAST majority ?

did i say it could still be done cant be that hard there was over 874,000 first time buyers in 2022/23 which was up on the previous year
In 1992 there was around 300,000 first time so it looks like people are finding it easier

So you're saying it's easier now than it was?

Just want to make sure I understand you

What makes him an expert on kids or the young, FFS? I work with them and have been in close contact with them for the last 23 years. I also used to have work experience kids frequently. My wife works with young people.

I can confirm that Harry has not got the first clue about young people. He needs to stick to counting ants and watching his meter spinning.

Take london prices out of the equation and a few other select places and see how those averages tumble

Yes, Glasgow housing estates for one. Castlemilk, for example, has done ok, but poorer than most.
