Check your privilege!!!

Its racist because you made a negative generalisation about an entire race of people based on your limited experiences.
Okay tell me how many white folk you know in their thirties and forties living with their parents through choice?
Because it's pretty much the norm for Indians.
Although today a lot are moving into their own homes it's probably a 50/50 split in the new young generation.
Whereas I'm guessing that the numbers of white British are in the high 90's that don't live with parents. So a massive disparity between the two.
It's a cultural thing. British folk kick their kids out as soon as they are able to.
Indians stay with their parents until they die unless you are a daughter then you move in with your in laws and stay with your husband's parents.
Therefore it's easy for folk that don't understand how other cultures work to say that having loads of people in the one home sounds like hell. When for others it's normal and tbh much better for family relations and friendships. Asians are much closer with their extended family and treat cousins like siblings. They literally see their grandads brother as their own grandad, etc. A first cousin is the same as your own brother or sister.
It's not racist pointing out cultural differences.
possible round hereWhat crap hole is the 5 bed detached for 250k in?
Dear Lord what a response. Yeah good shout.I was going to respond to PS but then I realised the only person it'll annoy is me.
So when I have people stay over they have somewhere to sleep.
Also the bigger the bed the better. Sure a single bed is okay up until you are a teenager. However a double bed is always going to be better.
I just upgraded to a king size John Ryan and wish I'd done it sooner. I couldn't go back to a double now.

I've sus'd people for less, suggest you watch your posting please.It helps if you aren't white though Asians tend to have much better relationships with their families. Whereas I have noticed British people literally see siblings and children as burdens to be shot off as soon as possible.

Having loads of bedrooms and having them all occupied by guests is my idea of the seventh circle of hell.

Hi all! I’m just after some advice.
is it best to buy a small house first time or invest in something substantial?
I can buy a 5 bed detached house for 250K or a 3 bed terrace house that’s not as desirable for 125K. I’m trying to deduce if it’s best to jump in deep end or start off small first time, investment/profit wise.
if you were me, single 28 year old with 60K in bank, what would you go for ?
I can provide links to property if interested.
cheers
If I did it all again I’d borrow as much as I could on interest only trackers.
I’ve spent a fortune chipping away at a tiny amount of mortgage and locking myself into rates that dropped soon after.
All from listening to the parents, pay off your mortgage, fix your rates etc etc
