    Thanks for the replys. @marksoton, no I have debts, car is paid for my only outlays are the usual everyday things like food, insurances, petrol, bills etc. I did set myself a limit on a house price of 100k but it's very hard to find one in the areas I like and with certain criterias like a driveway.

    Then you should be good. But i would suggest a broker.

    In this part of the world a house is a dream at £100K. It's flat only!
  • Asbolutely 100% go for it! I purchase my first home on my own and loved it! and still love it! as i am writing this from my dinning table.

    one of the best things is the sense of achievement you will get after to know you worked hard, you did all the leg work. then you get the benefits.

    Thanks for all input people, when with the partner and our combined income, we never had to think about anything, now everything needs taking into consideration.
