  • Seriously how the hell are we meant to work on this? I've saved for years and finally have a £15k deposit and I'm earning £40k + a year, and there is NOTHING in East London-ish that I can afford. How do people do it? I am completely at the end of my tether.

  • How do people do it?

    Most people buy in pairs. Even on your decent salary the mortgage you can get solo just doesn't stack up well against the cost of housing.

  • Even there though - my missus is on a sub £30k salary, even with mine stacked it doesn't work. How can anyone save a deposit on a sub £30k salary in London? I don't see it as possible.
