Did you pay in cash? What about the interest repayments? have you factored in the £10k of interest you pay the bank for the right to borrow all that money and thats with historically low rates.
We’ve paid ~70% cash, yes. I realise that’s fairly atypical for a first time buyer but I’ve been saving for a long time and unfortunately inherited recently. Our rate is therefore fixed for the next few years at a pretty good level and I could cover the mortgage at 10% interest if it came to it.
