Hi guys,
I’m looking for some advice, im 18 years old and am about to start my first full time job, I want to start saving for a mortgage and have been looking at LISA’s but have no idea which to choose or whether I am saving the right way.
My first question is should I apply for a LISA and if so which one should I go for?
Secondly how much should I put into savings monthly and is it a good idea to start now?

For house purchase use a cash LISA.

Options are somewhat limited.
Start ASAP. Save sensibly. Enjoy life a little as well.0
