I bet you were still bald then!I bought my first house in London in 1991 for £49,000 - the same houses sell for £350,000 now.
I am lucky enough to be on the ladder in a good area, but owning a house is totally over rated. It is a ridiculous artificial bubble, particularly in the South East.
@SuperChrissyisfantasticPardswasatrocious- I predict that if you have kids, you will be out of Peckham quicker than a rat down a drainpipe.
