Post Cost of hour building

I have been hiring the schools aircraft since i have passed my ppl to gradually build my hours. The schools prices is due to go up, to £105/hr wet for a PA28. while a 152 is £93/hr wet. The planes are well maintained, and the school has good instructors and social events. I cant afford to go into a share or part ownership, plus also the money I do try and save is for future training, (+ morgage).

Am I paying to much to build hours. I have seen some private aircraft that has been offered for cheaper rates, but they didnt look very airworthy.

Please advise and give examples of rates people are paying in the uk, as I cant afford the time or money to go to the U.S

cheers
