buying a house
 
Hi all,

Just been reading the message about landing without a job, very interesting. We are in the same boat and it is making us nervous as we are probably going to have to use all are funds to buy a house. Do most people buy straight away? What have most people done? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. The closer we get the more excited we are but also the more panicked we get over this whole issue of house/work/money thing. , .
:eek: :thumbup:


cheers

We bought within ten days of landing but we gambled on the money left over would be enough to keep us going until I secured a job. I'd say to use majority of funds for property but make sure you have a 6 month cushion. You can always get a mortgage and pay that off in lump sums in due course.

good luck:thumbup:
