Wasnt sure whether to post this here or AIBU. Was having a glass of wine with a good friend of mine last night who is also trying to buy in London and she told me that she and her husband have almost split up over their property search. My mate thinks they should get a flat and a smaller mortgage because they have small kids and need cash now, her partner thinks they need to buy a house and think of the future. I think price wise it's about 150k-200k difference and I sort of see her point.
I was trying to reassure her that it'll be ok either way but apparently they just can't agree and she was really upset. What would everyone else do? Would you opt for a flat and hope to have more money per month now or stretch yourself to a house but pay more per month.
