LoL quite funny, but are you serious? I think you are .... And it's clear you are not bothered to explain your point.
Inheritance?! So you are saying that home (owner occupier) purchase is only for young people with parents that
A) own a property, either their own home or other investmentare old enough to be at the point of death when their off spring are ready to purchase a home.
C) have significant equity in the property
D) have enough money in pension and investments to be able to use the property equity to give to off spring. I am assuming retirement, care homes are costly?
E) remember inheritance tax, so not a very efficient way to pass on the glorious house price increaes, unless you predict your death over 7 yrs in advance and keep on good terms with your babies.
Seems like a very unfair system to me, and one that is suppressing the less advantaged of a whole generation?
"Houses for homes NOT profit". Will be coming to a manifesto near you SOONPeace.0 -

We need to restructure our family way of living in the following ways.
A) Families need to look after their own elderly to avoid the care bills and stop expecting the tax payer to pick up the balance.Instead of children waiting to inherit from parents, parents should directly pass on the inheritance from their own parents to avoid the generational delay.
C) Timings and care bills can be further optimised with a trip to dignitas.
Most of our problems are due to people who are impatient for their birthright.
Generation rent, has 2,3 possibly 4 generations of inheritance waiting to trickle down to them. Instead of the hard done by generation, they are probably the luckiest generation to have ever lived.0 -

My house makes in a day what you earn in a year on the dole:rotfl::rotfl:
Keep stalking and following me around the forum, the classic will always be when you believed my doctor was actually Harold Shipman and didn't even get the joke:rotfl:Dumb beyond belief:rotfl:
Don't forget he might make more on the dole than you do Linda. You won't get the full rate til you are 30 or something.0 -

No, but I bet you had to write out few cheques to keep your house happy.0 -
I bought at 415k 2 years ago, and remortgaged this year: The bank was happy to accept a valuation at 475k.
While this has not made me any cash, this has allowed me to get a better mortgage deal thanks to the improved LTV, and that will save me hard cash for the next 3 years.0 -
