A mortgage savvy person needed please!

I have £10k saved for a deposit and the flats I've been looking at average about £180k. Does anyone have a rough idea as to how much that might cost me each month?

    What mortgage term do you want?
    Do you want an interest only mortgage or a repayment mortgage?

    Are you sure your income will be able to give you the required mortgage?

    Go to a website of one of the big banks like HSBC or A&L. They all have mortgage calculators so you can plug in a few figures and get a guide as to what it will cost. No obligations and takes seconds.

    Mortgage all approved, surveys OK.

    Complete 24th November (we hope!!!)
