Yes. house prices are insane.
Banks and landlords: “Pay went up? Awesome, prices and rent going up”
Pay went up by 5%? Awesome, prices and rent going up by 25%
Pay went down? Rent still go up
Why UBI in a bubble with no housing reform is a fool’s errand
My first thought was that 40% was low… but I suppose I’ve never been a first time buyer, so they probably have higher salaries than I do
Yeah either you live in London so are paying at a minimum 1600/month or 20k/year for a 350k mortgage, or if you live in the north or less desirable parts of the south you’re gonna be paying 750/month or 9000/year for a 175k mortgage, either way if that’s 40%, once you consider tax, bills, heating, food, transport (because no way can you afford to live within walking distance of work as a first time buyer) and whatever else you frankly don’t have a whole load left all in
Brit in the USA here. We are at 42% (Los Angeles, ca). Shits wild
In Canada we’re supposed to be limited to 42% going to housing costs and that’s how they determine how much mortgage they’ll approve. I think most people are hitting that mark if not finding ways of going over.
