      There is the option of selling and renting for a while..... the rental market is quite cheap at the moment. Worst case you can always invest the extra money you save on renting rather than giving it to the bank in the hope that every year house prices go up 10%.
      I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.

          You're both wrong ... said islands will already belong to the Chinese folk to whom your jobs have been outsourced.

                  Rent a nice pad, then when the market goes tits-up you take your 500k and buy 5 more houses, then do it all again.

                    Trouble is, large tropical islands will cost £10,000,000,000 by then.

                      He couldn't hack it in the City. So he raised the white flag and quit. But that's Italians for you. WHen the going gets hard, the Italians run away.
