Monica and I have recently been looking to buy a house. We got a mortgage agreement in principal, set our budget and set about looking for houses.
Living in the south east of England house prices are notoriously high, so I thought I’d take a look at some areas I have a connection to and see what the same budget — £300,000 — would buy there. For reference, let’s see the kind of property £300k will buy in Surrey and Hampshire.
