For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I bought a flat in Dennistoun 5 years ago for �42k and it's now worth over �90k and I've done barely anything to it. House prices will always go up, and once you've bought it, you know you have the time to do it up as and when you can afford and wish.
Why not speak to the Council and see if they have anything in the pipeline for whatever area you're in. Maybe the area will be redeveloped around you, in which case you could be sitting on a goldmine!
hello pinkie,
I agree with the others,go fo it, when you start paying back the mortgage,make sure you don't miss a single payment,and always pay a little bit more than the amount required,say your monthly payments are �200, try and pay �220 or a bit more if you can this will bring the mortgage down a lot quicker,because for the first few years you will only be paying interest,
also try to get the house into a good state of repair,but don't just pick workman out of the local paper,ask friends and relatives if the can reccommend anybody,
good luck,hope it works for you,Ray
