Not sure if this is the right forum for this question - couldn't find another though.
Usual dilemma - can't get on the housing ladder. We have just returned from abroad and are spending £2,000 each month on a rented house. Have looked at lots of small houses to get it down but we are a family of six and that just wouldn't work. Have been living in the States so our furniture is all over-sized. Could put everything in storage but that would be a really short term solution and it would take ages to get to a place where we can afford a house and get it all back again.
The frustrating thing is that we can meet the £2,000 each month but do not have the huge deposit we need to get a mortgage (been told preferably 20% needed). So it looks like we are faced with renting for the rest of our lives. Anyone got out of this predicament???
