We are starting to consider if a student mortgage will be a good idea for our DD, currently in 1st year in hall, going forward rather than student rental.
Student rentals in the city she is in are a lot more expensive than regular private rental and are quite crowded with basic facilities. And in short supply.
The student mortgage costs about the same, taking into account all other costs as well. But it is an asset and a foot onto the ladder.
Has anyone sent experience of getting a student mortgage or looking at it and deciding not to.
