Average Mortgage repayments in the late 1980s were 62% of average salary today the average repayment are just over 32% of average salary problem with these posts is they do not factor in interest rates which were well into double figures in the 1980s and at times were higher than 16% so you can take a house price as a multiple of salary, but when you look at the cost of financing the purchase the scales change. You’ve got to stop painting the past as a bowl of cherries especially for people who did not live in the south east - just look at indicators like suicide rates, youth unemployment, violent crime etc. Every response to problems is so basic and binary at the moment blame the old, disabled, refugees etc whilst the corporations and Billionaires are pissing themselves laughing as you are blaming a granny from Perth for the fact you can’t buy a house - rather than the corporations buying up property’s and forcing up prices.

Let the haters hate! Buying a property on 62k is more than feasible

You're not buying a property for £75k in Edinburgh. You'd need a loan. That means you can't afford one. Be like saying I can afford a Lambo with £1k. Oh yeah and a £100k loan, but that doesn't count

You didn’t buy a house you bought a flat.

What’s so good about Edinburgh? You make out as if it’s the land of milk and honey and it’s like a fantasy world.
