It’s all very well if you have enough money,or if you grew up in a time when you could buy a house for 3 times salary,but imagine a young man saving up to get married and then he needs 40k deposit for his first home.He needs to work 60 hours to have any chance of achieving his goals
40k deposit?
What percentage of property price?
If we’re talking 10-15% value of property (£400,000) then maybe your lad needs to set his sights lower or move to a cheaper area.
Tell me a little bit about this ‘first property’ how many bedrooms, bathrooms, garden, garage, drive, garden size, area?
Where I live,the cheapest houses would be victoriana terrace for 130k so I suppose ,yes you could buy one sticking to 48 hours work,but these are not nice areas to live.
If you are talking about a very modest 3 bed in a reasonable area, then 230k plus.The only way to have a chance, on a truckers wage would be to work all the hours you can
