In Utah County the cheapest “House” for sale is 600 square feet, 2 bed, 1 bath, at $300k.
So at current interest rate it would be $1,800 a month mortgage(assuming you put the 60k down payment! A decent amount more if you do 3% down.)
The cheapest condo/town in utah valley is 205k, 1,100 square feet, on a 400 square foot lot. But due to a $500 HOA fee the monthly cost is still 1,700 a month (assuming 20% down).
With 3.5% down they’d both be closer to 2.1k +PIMI.
So yeah, how is where you live doing?
315k GBP for a 2br ‘period property’ (aka a disgusting dilapidated horder house with the energy efficiency of a tent)
Figure in another 100k and a year to fix it, due to how UK contractors work.
London? Or somewhere close?

Its all relative really, because we don’t experience extreme temperatures the smaller variations in temperature make a bigger difference to us. It might get up to 25 degrees on a typical summer day and as cold as -10 in winter, but the difference between a day for shorts and a day for a jumper could be only 3 or so degrees

It does because energy is very expensive in the UK.
