HI, dh & I have been renting in this area for years, rents are increasing & we want to buy before our landlord puts up the rent. We are first time buyers with 2 young girls (3&2), we applied for a mortgage today & based on income the most we will be able to afford is a 2 bed terrace house. We don't want to move from the area we are in as we are well settled but I don't know how we'll cope in a 2 bed, we have so much stuff & we are used to alot of space here in our 3 bed semi-d rental. Advice greatly appreciated.
If we go ahead & buy a 2 bed our mortgage will be alot less than the rent we are currently paying but I guess we always imaginged ourselves in a spacious 3 bed & now it is not going to happen...
