I've been based in Scotland...........Which region are you from?

I currently live in the identical type of house (married quarter) paying 135 pounds per month (includes no water rates to pay, free maintenance, travel to base paid petrol or public transport and 10 travel warrants to my home town worth £180ish each). You could say I'm living for free but I have to pay a contribution to council tax roughly £110.

Not like I spend much time at home - I'm normally on a 9 month deployment!!!

That £170-180k terraced house was a ex married quarter sold off by the MOD 15 years. The property has had no investment. The ex-married quarter still has the old woodchip wallpaper painted magnolia and old MOD carpets. I did put a low offer in but I am not bothered. I save a lot of money each month and planning to become a landlord in my hometown (North East). I am taking it slow and watching how the rental market is affected by the stamp duty and future tax relief changes. I am not a fan of landlords but if you cant beat, join them.

East Dunbartonshire. I don't care where you're from, just responding to your attitude about Scotland. You've made it clear you don't like Scottish people based on the country they are from. There's a word for that...

We'd been mortgage-free for 2 years before we sold and moved into a 6month rental. We'll be taking out a new mortgage and will again be mortgage free in around 5 years. So, at under 40 years old we'll fully own a detached bungalow, 1800ft2, in a superb schooling area. Between us we earn average salaries and work part time (3 and 4 days respectively). Someone like Crashy (no idea what age he is) won't have anything to show other than some cash in the bank gaining nothing in interest, yet still feels compelled to tell people his way is the right way.

Bonkers.

My attitude has changed towards Scotland. My Scottish friends don't like Scotland any more. Blame SNP and their attitude towards the UK! I like the Scottish people, I never said that, your assuming.

UK government seeks finance expert, experience of giant trade deals preferred

Are you a finance expert with a proven record of negotiating big deals? There may have a challenging job for you in London.
The British government advertised on Monday for an experienced dealmaker to help forge a new relationship between its financial services industry and the European Union.
The next director-general of financial services at Her Majesty's Treasury will be paid around 125,000 pounds a year. The post is open to all EU and Commonwealth nationals, according to the advert on the civil service's jobs website.
The successful applicant will have to tackle one of the thorniest questions resulting from June's Brexit vote - whether Britain can maintain easy access for its vast financial sector across the EU after it leaves the bloc.
"The DG will play a central role in defining and negotiating our new relationship with the EU in the field of financial services," the advert said.
"The role will include a significant element of international travel to conduct negotiations and build relationships with the European Commission, finance ministries and international organisations."
Candidates should have "strong influencing and negotiating skills that achieve results, ideally in the field of financial regulation", the advert said.

The 125,000-pound salary is high for a civil servant but a fraction of the sum earned by many bankers who work in London's City financial district. The first task for any applicant may be to negotiate a better rate.
The previous director general of financial services, Charles Roxburgh, received more than 130,000 pounds in 2014 according to Treasury data. Roxburgh, who joined from the consultancy firm McKinsey, was promoted last month to become second permanent secretary at the Treasury.

This is Northern Ireland. Part of the UK. Similar building levels. Similar market.

So why did Northern Ireland crash a lot more than UK

House building wasn't particularly high no. It collapsed because it was allowed to collapse. The Republic's bubble bursting helped it along. The measures implemented to keep the UK bubble inflated were too late for NI.

I googled it and it said that prices in Northern Ireland boomed more than anywhere else in UK help by demand from people from south of border so when crash came it was worse.

It definitely helped it along. But like all bubbles it was going to burst eventually. London and the SE have probably moved to or past where NI was in 2007.
