Hi :hello:

We received the endowment money on the 22nd and have now received the full redemption statement from Barclays and everything is due to happen on the 8th June :j:j:j:j:j

OMG I'm so excited. I have to say IT'S NOT AN ANTICLIMAX!

It feels amazing. I own my own home. I will never have to worry about paying a mortgage again. We will have so much money left over every month it's unreal (except our boys are about to go to Uni ). We really are so glad we started on this journey 9 years ago
