[Hurricane]

Morning all,

Would like to find out some specifics regarding those of you with a contractor mortgage, in particular the following:

- Total amount borrowed (including this figure as a % of annal income)
- deposit requirement
- Interest rate
- When did you take the mortgage out?
- Mortgage provider

Appreciate any help that you good people can provide

I would like to find out some specifics about yourself first, if that is okay?

- who are you?
- why do you want this information?
- how will it be used?
- why don't you take a running jump?

I think you have mis judged your audience, we are all über wealthy and paid for all our many houses in cash, usually a briefcase full like they do in the television land

The first 3 are fair questions I suppose.

The information is purely to satisfy my personal curiosity - I am a contractor considering a house purchase. Rest assured that there is no ulterior motive.

Lets see if you can learn some manners...

I was under the impression that it wasn't the best of manners to ask strangers how much they earn about their personal assets

WTF is it with mortgages this week? Seems to be the default stick for newbies to start poking through the CUK bars with.

I'm sure most peoples annual income is circa £7.5k. As for their anal income, that's usually a cash in hand affair and not disclosed on finance application forms.

Do you realise that these questions are highly intrusive, especially for a complete stranger on a public forum?

Perhaps if you asked for advice about your situation then people might be prepared to advice you, although please ensure you have used the search feature before you ask.
