Morning all,
I'm finding it a hard slog to find the final few percentages needed but luckily hubby had £800 invested in bitcoin I did not know about and has just cashed it in to give us £1659.56
Its also payday for one of my jobs so that adds a further £341.88 and I received a website order so that adds another £7.83 into the OP savings pot
So my total now currently stands at £80190.46/£81700 = 98.15%
Less than 2% to find or to be exact £1511.45Mortgage - £2338.07 paid off Feb 2023 BTL 1 £51,089.10 £35789.36 paid off July 2025 BTL 2 £81,504.52 BTL 3 £77,497.021 -
