Curious how much you ACTUALLY need

MrRightSA · 2013-09-04 01:16:07

I'd love to buy a house with my partner but we can't really afford it. I have about £5k saved which basically means we could go for a house up to the value of £100k. Then I know you have lawyers fees, surveyors fees, postage fees and whatever else fees. Is this sort of thing worked into the mortgage or would it be 5k…

All of this is amazing advice. By the looks of it too, I should be good to go for a bought house by next year. It's not as expensive as I thought it would be for the initial save over and above my deposit which is always great news.

Thank you for your help, all of you.
