My dads mate is wealthy, but not stupidly loaded. He lives in a fucking mansion in Birmingham and it wasn't that much more than our modest 4bed detached in a scummy area in Maidenhead. As for jobs it is strictly true but my job pays the same nationwide.

For the moment I have put the idea on hold. Decided to pay all my other outgoings off (Which should be in around 18 months time) which in the meantime i can get a bit more of a deposit sorted out and find somewhere a little better.
Thanks for the help though, Has given me a better understanding without getting brainwashed by some banker talking about what if's and confusing figures!

Bonney, go to nationwide they do a good savings account for first time buyers. after saving with them for over 9 months i think with minimum £50 a month you can then take advatange of their 95%-80% mortgages. Also if you save over £10,000 you get £1000 cashback if you take out a mortgage with them!
just an idea
