Does he have the financial ability to manage all the costs involved in being a homeowner, even if he is effectively given a house (albeit with a small mortgage)?
No landlord to ring if something breaks.
How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 3.24% of current retirement "pot" (as at end December 2025)1 -
Hi Sea Shell
Yes he's looked at the costs carefully and he's very practical and has lots of 'workie' connections.
If he does find he is struggling he knows he can sell and buy something cheaper and smaller, and he does not have the worry of hitting retirement and being homeless/having to rent.Not just a sucker for sweeties..:o1
