I'll be concise as I can..
When I move this time next year after fees etc i've worked out i will have 100k(ish) liquid, broken down to:
Next year I will buy a house worth 170k to renovate again and instead of buying a Porsche i've put my sensible hat on and thought of putting down a 50% LTV @ 85,000 deposit leaving me enough money at around 15k for renovation work without having to borrow on cards etc and possibly a few grand left to 'forget' in an emergency fund.
My monthly payments will fall from the current £615pm to around £380pm.
Long term goal - mortgage free in 8 years.
Can anyone see any flaws or recommend other things I should be looking at.
