Pokey,
yeah done a fair bit of shopping about, but all quotes were coming in about the same, tbh im looking at fairly high interest rates cause i wanted a 5 year fixed, just so i know where i am, and also cause they not gonna stay low for much longer. as for 1st time buyer help, ive not been offered any apart from they will pay £500 towards my 1st years council tax bill.
the part buy part rent bullshit scheme is a con, you will end up paying as much if not more than if you could have got a larger mortgage and they set the market value of the property which they tend to set it a lot higher than its actually worth.
just fucks me off that I have a mate that lives in the block that I want to buy in, and he got his place for nuffin, all paid for by us, and he also gets £110pw spending money. make's me wonder why I bother going to a job I hate day in day out just to be able to not afford to live in a place that I could have got by just sitting on my arse and expecting everyone else to pick up the tab
