that was the plan but I still have £2.50 left! too scary to work out what piffling percentage that would be:o. found out today that apparently house prices are going up round here so have done various calcs and come to the conclusion that when I sell here I need to buy something at the same time, renting for a while would just put me way back in LTV terms. suppose the upside is that this place might go for more than I thought...Mortgage OP 2025 £6200/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
