Having now watched this episode, it was really grating on me how they kept going on about how this was "a hard working couple" - like somehow people who haven't got that sort of budget obviously aren't hard working Hmm

Back - I noticed that! Many people work considerably harder than a pair of City workers and they'll still never, ever have £1.5mil to spend on a house.

I have just watched Location Location and I'm sure I have seen that house (the 1.5M) one on a mother programme maybe Escape To The Country some time ago. Weird thing is I don't watch many property things, can anyone help or am i going mad???

Location, Location, Location and the programmes similar to it (A Place in the Sun etc.) should be renamed, "Look how much money we've got. Take note, everybody"

Haha, I agree! I'll never forget the episode with a couple of first time buyers who didn't go with Phirstie's suggestion and were so smug that they'd found their own place (probably in the centre of London somewhere). They paid £300,000 for a basement flat with a living room that was so small it was basically a TV in a cupboard. But it had two (two!) bedrooms, which could only fit a single bed each in, and a kitchen that was a microwave over a sink.

Up here that would have bought you a detached house in its own grounds.

But where do these young couples get the money from? Do they take out 55 year mortgages Confused

I hate the way the couples on it always think they are the first person in the world ever to have had a babby

I was amazed at what you could get for 100k tbh. I'd love to know what region of Manchester was less money than where thy were in Nottingham area.
