Nice one Bibio, I did the same 5 years back, although I didn't get that monster discount, mine was a measley 42%, still a sizeable chunk off and allowed me to buy outright too

Next job an extension/conservatory?

Congrats

Congratulations Bibio, I moved into a 2-bed mid terrace in '96 initially in 50/50 shared ownership, managed to take the whole lot on three years later thanks to a bond my grandparents had paid into when I was young. A combination of second hand Fiesta's and not many big holidays meant I was able to pay the mortgage off in 4-5k chunks every few years so less than 5k left on it now

Also still got the yellow peril described below, or an emerging classic as the dealers/classic magazines/VJMC call them now . . .

Always a good feeling. I left home at 18, rented then bought. Overpay a bit on my mortgage each month too.

I know people who are still living at home with their parents over the age of 30 which I just don't understand. I know buying isn't cheap but why would anyone want to still be living like a teenager at home after the age of 21.

If you want to check who owns your house, where the boundaries are, mine shafts, flood risk etc. etc. take a look at the Land registry website, you can get copies of stuff relating to your house for nominal cost.

Always been disappointed. It's ok for ownership, but not accurate enough for boundaries etc. And you have to pay before you find this out.
