    my advise is buy a home not an investment or something you can add value to by extending or renovating, if it then goes pear shaped your then not desperate to move.

    The whole housing market goes in cycles much like the stock market there is always a correction eventually
    how much would it have cost to rent it?

    I did not dissimilar (I got out in 96) but realised it would have cost me more to rent it.

    Since 96 though I have made a packet.
