Anyone else thinking they’ll have to remortgage just to live ??

Options
Is anyone else thinking they’ll need to remortgage to cover the increasing bills?? I’m worried I won’t be able to sustain my family if everything keeps going up. We just about make ends meet as it is. I only have 3 years left on my mortgage but can barley afford all the general cost of living bills. I have been a nurse for over 20 years. My husband has I’ll health and currently not working whilst he is recovering. My salary covered everything for now without any breathing space. I’m terrified of everything going up more. What’s everyone else going to do just to live???

  • Would you be entitled to any benefits due to your husband's ill-health?  Indi x

     as it makes you more vulnerable in that you could lose you house if not able to pay your increased mortgage.

    is your husband able to claim anything for being off sick? Can you sell anything etc.

    I agree. Don't do that.

    If you are struggling go to the main dfw board and posts a statement of affairs.

    Three years to becoming mortgage free is a short time. Don't mess it up now.
