nice house that, have ben looking at around £89,000 with 5% deposit. You can get cheap houses round here they just aren't on very good streets...so i'm trying to compromise (£100K nice street too expensive) (£50/60K horrible area V.affordable) going to go for 80-90K in a decent area.......just affordable!! :D

yes we did not pay stamp duty. if your house is over 60K you need to pay 1% tax

i have a mortgage for 57k its 360 a month and that includes my house insurance and life insurance. mines fixed for another year. sometimes i wish it was variable kus rates are quite good at min but then the advantage is it doesnt go up either. get an indendant adviser. :)

335 for the morgage, thats a fixed rate 57K, we pay 50 a month for insurance which covers noth me and lynne for death, illness and unemployment. then there is the 28 a month house insurance.

I would go to the mortgage advice people and go to at least 2 other advisers. buying a house in England is different from Scotland but the mortgages are the same.
