This is the future of our market and suggestions that the average FTB may have to fork out up to £1 million within the next 20 years to get onto the property ladder does not bear thinking about.
I know some people will suggest that aspiring FTBs should give up the ghost and rent, much like many other European countries, but home ownership still remains a dream for many. By taking the attitude that ‘they can’t afford it, and never will be able to, so they should rent forever’ is negative, and there has to be more ways to help get people onto the housing ladder.
