You haven't done too bad if you look on it as a low risk investment and everyone needs somewhere to live so your not stuck with something you cant easily change.

However, if your thinking of finding your ideal home I would not be too worried if the house you bought for lets say 50 grand went down a wee bit in value. It would mean it would be easier to upscale. That's what you need to be thinking about and if your house is going up in value the more expensive houses are going up in value by the same percentage and even more in gross terms.

Thanks!
It at least gives me a bit of time to decide what to do & can live cheaply enough in the meantime with no rent It just puts you off making the place really nice if your hearts not staying there but i think of it as a small investment now If i did ok i could maybe keep it to rent out in future Hope you're still happy in the house  |

yep i know i have thought about all those things mate , spot on
that's the trouble the good houses are all rising by more , but i think there's a lot of hype right now tbh there are still some good buys around , but moving to a house would be something to be thinking of sooner rater than later , or i could try & build more money & buy a 2nd flat where i could rent this out as well |

Need to go now Moonbeam but catch up with you again soon. Keep positive. Stop putting yourself in a jail of your own making. Your a young man and most people would trade off a lot of money to be your age and in good health. Have a good weekend.

If you sit on a computer all night playing poker, and sleep all day, travelling to work is not a problem. You'd probably get better properties out in the sticks where ever you live, rather than in towns or cities.
Too late now, but you should have looked further afield and invested in property in London in the late 1990s. That's when prices were still going absolutely mad. We bought a 100 year old 2 bed terraced house in 1999, with an £8k deposit, sold it in 2002 for £52k more than we paid for it. Purchased a 4 bed end of terrace, sold that in 2005 for £105k more than we paid for it. Got a 4 bed detached house in the country, and we were mortgage free, all from £8k, in just under 6 years. |
