PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

Oh and wouldn't worry about taking it over a longer term so long as you can overpay. It just means to are 'committed' to less.. (eddited to add): committed to less each month I mean, so the lender is less twitchy..

Well we were hoping the fees would be less than that, I must admit! However having looked on here, people have advised others to budget 5k for fees, so that's what we've set aside. Circumstances may be different in other people's cases though, so maybe we have put aside far too much! We are living with my in-laws to be and the house we like is round the corner. We could walk our possessions round to the new house if we went for it!!0

If you were selling too and had to pay estate agents fees and larger solicitors fees then maybe so, oh and if you had stamp duty fees... 0
