We (a couple) purchased our house last year for a £215,000. 6 months of hard manual labour, and with the help and efforts of family the house has been totally renovated at minimal cost. New value quoted at £300,000+.
House price crash? By more than £10,000? Really? It's the dream of certain economists. Where I live, the Olympics have yet to pass
Get on the property ladder dude! People have been predicting a crash for the last 10 years. In that time I know several people who at age 30 are now owning 2 properties and paying off both mortgages with one rental income. They do help, them renters!
