    I am only 22 years old and have been saving for my own first home. I can't get the first time buyer discount because I already have 3 houses in London and 2 aboard which my parents have given me. I want to see the mortgages advisor and she was fuming that I would ask for the discount when I already have 3 houses in London. I haven't bought my own house, why can't I have the discount. I been working from last year after finishing university.


    Is it possible to attend university nowadays with such a level of illiteracy?

    OP, you should get in touch with Snowatlast, who had a surprisingly similar dilemma:

    Thank you. I was searching for that thread because I had a strong sense of deja vu.

    Depends on the university. Some of them only require you to be able to write your name to be offered a place.

    Try again and this time do some research before you post. (It was one of those universities where if you can spell your name correctly you can get a place)



    It isn't a first time buyers discount it is a first time OWNERS discount. First time buyers also have to be first time owners. What you have posted doesn't make you a first time owner.

    "Moregain". Either a troll or an off the scale capitalist.

    Thank you.

    I read the op and thought that it sounded uncannily familiar and was just about to go on a search.
