I know there's a few of you going through this at the moment and I wondered if I could ask a question, please?
When you've been looking at what you can afford to borrow/repay, how much did you consider potential rate rises when deciding what to spend? For example, if you know you can comfortably afford repayments at 3/4/5%, did you consider what would happen should rates go much higher? I can't see it's likely in the short/medium term but the BBC calculator just scared me telling me what our hypothetical repayments would be at 12% ?
Also, Mrs C, you're Herts, aren't you? Any particularly places you'd recommend? Thanks x
