Hi, how much is your rate today

Esusu is the way to go. I like this idea sef pack last on the first run then pack first on the second run. Will propose it to my guys
Ralphlauren:
Leave them to keep arguing oh grin

Ajo is bae. I know people that are using it to break into the property ladder. Imagining ajo is 12 months (1k each) and you pack last and then for the next cycle, you pack first. Thats 24k neat within 13 months grin That's a deposit for a house in the bag.

The caveat is to do it with people you trust and consider credible.

I can't wait to pack mine in July grin I intend to put 4k straight into my shares and stock lifetime ISA and invest the rest in shares and crypto grin i must join lexus and wonlesanmi in the largesse theyve been getting from shares and crypto

If one person packs and doesn't pay up what happens?

I very much doubt it except it’s those inhabitable houses that will require plenty of refurbishment work

Just wanted to ask can someone get a nice 3 bedroom house on mortgage in a good location with £30k
Travel › Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by omopapa: 8:51pm On Mar 10, 2022
For example: 10 group of friends contributing £1,000 monthly. One person pack the total contribution and use it for down payment of their mortgage.

They continue the circle until it goes round
Bluetherapy:
How does the "ajo/esusu" style works. Wouldn't the repayment/contribution show in the bank statement and potentially affect affordability?
Travel › Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by omopapa: 7:44pm On Mar 10, 2022
I think the next one should be how to build and save up for mortgage deposit.

I have heard of the “ajo/esusu” style and also cash gift

I have already chosen a side jare and I am PRO mortgage anytime
Lexusgs430:
Oga, I remember many years ago ...... People advised us never to buy a property (that we should just apply for the council the provide us accommodation)......

That buying a property, was financial slavery........

People should do with our information, how they deem fit........

TO BUY OR NOT TO BUY ......... cheesy

By the time you refuse to buy, and look back ....... May you be pleased with your decisions.......... wink
Travel › Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by omopapa: 11:42pm On Mar 08, 2022
So you will rather pay 950 rent than pay 500-600 mortgage?
phyl123:
Stamp duty , solicitors fee and mortgage fees are all lost money if you are keeping the property for lees than 5 years, there is no guarantee that the property will go up in value within 5 years . It also depends on the location of the property.
Travel › Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by omopapa: 9:16pm On Mar 08, 2022
I still disagree cus the value of the property after 5 years will most likely not be the same. The rent you are paying is lost (i.e rent money is dead money ~ oga lexusgs430)
phyl123:
If you are not going to hang on to the property for more than 5 years, then you are better off renting. Reason being when you add up the stamp duty , solicitors fees, mortgage fees, repairs during ownership etc ..then it might be better off renting.

Good Morning Everyone

I want to make payment for Accommodation here from Nigeria.

The landlord already sent the Account number and Sort Code.

I will gladly appreciate any information on how I can go about that here from Nigeria or any other alternative.

Thank you.

I still don’t get people that argue against this point and vote for renting
Lexusgs430:
Paying rent is, paying your landlord's mortgage/adding to their investment/pension pot

Your would NEVER receive an equity appreciation fund from your landlord, when you leave their property..... cheesy
Travel › Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by omopapa: 2:36pm On Mar 01, 2022
True that is so if you are in ur 30s or under it is generally cheaper to buy than rent.

I see renting as you helping the landlord pay their mortgage
Peerielass:
It’s not always the case, there are other variables to be considered like the age of the person buying the house, the deposit and the repayment period. For instance if you are a 50 year old male buying a first house, you will only get a 15 year mortgage with a higher monthly repayment compared to a 30 yr old man who has over 35 years of working life remaining and can afford to spread the repayments over 35 years.

Jokes aside if u want used gadgets then try Facebook market place, gumtree, shpock and local phone shops

For new ones, Argos, Amazon, eBay

If I get him well he wants a contract wedding that’s symbiotic
Viruses:
I almost did not want to comment on this but e no let me pass.

In summary...are you asking whether you should marry your girlfriend or you are asking whether you should just look for a girl, wife her and bring her over so that she can work and assist you financially. Which one? What is your objective?
Travel › Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by omopapa: 1:45pm On Feb 28, 2022
After everything I have done for you? I brought you to this country.
Viruses:
From this, it appears you're trying to be proactive about visa extension i.e if you finish your studies and PGW, she will begin her own round of studies and PGW then you become dependant. Instead of marrying someone you don't know, just be doing several masters program and PhD if possible till you complete the 10 years.

If you decide to risk it, you might still get a good wife, just that you might be the problem not the lady because you'll feel entitled.
