Just feeling slightly stressed as I am spending what is quite a significant sum of money on a house extension and renovation. I am not having to borrow the money, but it’s pretty much all my savings! I will never have a lump sum like this again sadly... On the other hand, this work is really very much needed (old, very neglected terrace house in London that I have lived in for a number of years, just making do with ancient electrics, damp, etc). And it will increase the value of the house so I can sell it in the future if need be.
But is it normal to feel like this? I never felt nervous about taking on mortgages, but spending my very hard earned and saved cash feels different!
