I live in the Greater London area and have been trying desperately to own a property. I pay nearly £1,400 per month where I live and I can't move that far away as I am looking after my elderly mother.
Genuine question - who the hell can afford to snap up these properties where I live? I am seeing 1 bedroom flats go for £250k. FLATS! The average 2 bedroomed terraced house is around the £350k - £400k mark, but all properties are on the market for a matter of weeks before they are sold. There are only so many investors, lottery winners and those who have inherited money. The average Joe Bloggs doesn't earn a salary that could cover a mortgage of this scale, so who is buying them?
