Why Are Uk Houses So Expensive?

[Jack8991]

So I’m a teacher earning around £30,000 a year, 23 years old living at home with parents. My grandma was saying that when she dies (which hopefully isn’t for a very long time), I could buy her house, which is a semi detached estimated between £190-200K. I’ve been told by a family friend who is in banking that on my salary I’d be leant roughly £90-100K for property, so I always tell my gran there’s no way I could afford it as I’d have to put a deposit down of about £90-100K just to be loaned the rest. Even a lot of terraced houses are out of my price range. I just find it frustrating that I’ve worked hard since being at school to go on to get a degree and a career to not even be able to afford my own home. I know there’s renting but I don’t want to be paying out for a house I’ll never own until I die. Thanks

I have to say I am impressed that jark's response to being identified is not catastrophic collapse

Peter- it’s not catastrophic collapse because I know what you’re saying isn’t true

A troll is someone who comes online to deliberately try to offend or upset people. I haven’t done any of those things. I just have my opinion and have provided evidence to back up my opinion. Other users have argued their points also
