Re: Your obode
5-bed detached (self-build) near Tunbridge Wells. Mortgage, no contract for two and a half years and a litigous neighbour from Hell, so I can't even sell up and move.

Re: we have..........
Mindomoo, aren't you female? In which case, without wishing to sound sexist, how much of that property is thanks to your contractor rate?Comment

Re: we have..........
yes I am female
How much is to do with my contractor rate - none actually
We bought it prior to me contracting when I was a 36K permie and my other half was an 80K permie - we based the mortgage (176K) on his salary alone to give us some breathign space
What my contractor rate now enables (in addition to his 80K permie salary thereby having some degree of security against the contracting market) is for me to :
1. Pay a gardner for two days a week in summer and one in winter to keep the land under control
2. Pay a cleaner to clean the hosue one day a week
3. Not have to worry about us botching DIY - we pay a man who can
Not sure what you were trying to get at though!Comment

Re: we have..........
Yeah Mindomoo, and why 4-beds when you don't want kids? Or has your "timer" finally gone off?

Re: we have..........
Why 4 beds?
Two reasons...........
1. We wanted a large kitchen and land - funnily enough these tend to come in 4 bed houses
2. I often work from home as doen him indoors - so the bedrooms are accounted for as:
main bed
guest bed
his office
my office
We have one very large loung and one kitchen on the ground floor with a wood floored reception hall
Nowt to do with timers (some of us dont have them)Comment

Re: we have..........
Wasn't getting at anything. Simply husbands are usually the highest earners, so I wanted to know whether the property was thanks to contracting or something else; innocent question.Not sure what you were trying to get at though!
