None of your business.

There are statistics available which give a far more accurate cross section of the population than the Internet freaks who inhabit these boards.

Absolutely. A very small minority of the population use these site. A small minority of those read this board, and those that do will primarily be ones who are trying to buy houses. The results will be meaningless. A lot of people in the country are happy with their housing situation so won't be looking for a site like this.

That's bloody impressive - can I ask how you managed that?

under 30 - lodger who can't afford to rent whole property (living with 30 yr old landlord/flatmate with mortgage who can't afford property without a lodger!)

We've owned our home outright since the age of 40. With no help from anyone.

"Running Horse" - Hence why I said the poll's anonymous - you don't need to post to tell me it isn't my business.

As for everybody else, thanks for the responses. Some useful snippets of information. I won't be dwelling too much and have made the decision that I'll not be rushing for the sake of it, and saving for an appropriate deposit rather than the minimum
