    I am contemplating on inviting my partner to stay along in the future. We are serious about our relationship and with enough courage in heart and roof above me head, i am going to pop the ultimate question ( for which I am certain I know the answer). She is pharmacist as well and would strongly assume contribute to my mortagage ( or shall I say our mortgage).But as of now, I was considering single application only as thats more realistic view of my present and shall I say the worst financial situation.
    In that case, why not wait and buy together. That way she gets a say in where she lives! ... although if she's got anything about her you'll be buying what she tells you to anyway!

    I can't see her being over-enamoured about a property next door to your mate. Smacks of "never see you" there! When you should be at home being nagged!
