I had today off work because I've got loads of stuff to do... one of the things is to chase up a house I've been trying to buy... one of those shared ownership things...
I called the guy and asked him if I'd been allocated one... he said that the Borough it is in has kicked up about me being referred because I EARN TOO MUCH??? WHAT???
I'm 21... with NO savings... OK, I earn more than most people my age (around £31k) but HOW ON EARTH can I EARN TOO MUCH ...?? Surely that is a good thing???
It's really pissed me off, because I can't afford to rent somewhere in London, and I can't afford to buy 100% of somewhere on my own...
I really need to move out of home because I currently live with mum and brother and they do my head in. I just don't know what to do :cry: the guy said he is going to try and get me one and it could be that I do get one... but he said not to hold my breath - he is going to give me a call tomorrow and let me know :sigh:
I'm gutted... if I don't get one my only option is to rent a tiny little studio flat somewhere in London... or move out of London so its cheaper, but that would mean I would have to move from all my friends
