Repossession and Recession Result In Fewer Young Home Owners

Just a quick one today and a shocking eye-opener for anyone considering buying their first home…

The Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML) has conducted research that suggests around 80% of all people under 30 need financial help from a relative to buy a house. But get this – before the recession and repossession nightmare, this figure was almost half that, at 45%.

Ultimately, the CML have concluded that the likelihood of a 25-34 year-old buying a property at the moment is around half the level it was 10 years ago.
