    Sure, but I prefer hard work and saving up. Buying a house is not a right but to be respected and earned.


    Rented for 16 years before buying a house, what's the shame in not buying before 30?


    Some people...... They expect to be given things on a silver plate




    Why not get a better paid job, train yourself up, or perhaps should have paid attention at school instead of messing around and expecting parents to fund everything. Not so easy is it in the real life is it?

    I can almost hear the foot stamping tantrum as you typed this.

    Put your big girl pants on and look for cheaper houses

    100,000k? What kind of run down barn am I going to be living in. Really is quite frustrating.

    Add in your current £50,000 savings and you get a brand new flat: https://www.zoopla.co.uk/new-homes/details/44676907?search_identifier=b0f64809383675c15cac10f935a18d19#DoIX7S4el2LQAGb6.97
