Its so interesting to see the differing opinions and experiences re houses on this thread. I’m from the North and the fact that a 30 something married couple with decent jobs and no dependents can get a mortgage for £350k house isn’t that surprising to me. It’s not the norm, but not massively unusual either. I know couples in similar circumstances that have done the same in terms of a step up to their second home.
From what the previous poster said it looks like they’ve made £30k+ on their current house, and with whatever they put in to begin with they’ve probs got around a 15% deposit without even trying. They both earn a decent wage and we know Danielle must make a pretty good side income from her ads so probs have solid savings to add to that too.
