Forever Home Fund

A question about : Forever Home Fund

I have been lurking here for a few weeks and decided it was time to stick my head above the parapet title=Smile

I'm a bit of a fraud TBH, I don't even have a mortgage, but OH and I are saving to buy a house so it's kinda the same thing - will you let me join in?

Ј192,737 mortgage!

A question about : Ј192,737 mortgage!

Yes, the above amount is correct.
I am working full time and have two children 11 and 8.
At the minute I am on halifax variable of 3.99% for 27 years..which takes me to 68 yrs old...omg...sounds horrendous when I write it.
I have managed this situation for nearly 5 yrs. I had my house on the market for 2yrs but no interest. I have posted on another forum about should I try and move to a smaller, cheaper property or stick it out?
Having read comments on mfw I can do it but will it be worth it in the long run?

MF in 10

A question about : MF in 10

Hi All,

Have been meaning to (re)start my MFW diary for a few months and finally getting around to it.

Been around the forums for years; started originally as a MFW on my first house up north. Was diverted away from that when I upped sticks to London (that house is now a BTL) and have since met my DH, had DD and took on an eye watering mortgage in 2012.
We spent 2012-2014 on a serious debt bust and managed to clear them all before the % offers were up.
