With a modest house

Or

Rent and live in a house in the U.K. and have a holiday house abroad that you rent out and that brings in extra money and you can go and stay at for holidays?

I couldn’t be annoyed with the hassle and red tape of owning a home in another country and renting it out. I would also get bored going to the same place on holiday every year.

i would rather own my own main home - and be secure knowing I have a rent free home that will see me into my old age. and holiday wherever the mood takes me😊

The first one. Your own roof over you that no one can take away from you. That piece of mind is priceless.

I also wouldn’t want to feel limited in where I went on holiday, I like going to different places
