This was very insightful

[@emakimberly6541]

Hi Chidera, I always get so excited when you post a video and I have been following you since you were in Uni before you got married. It is even more exciting that we bought our house almost same time as you did. For my husband and I, what we decided to do was buy a house based on one salary( I know this isn’t for everyone) but what this means is God forbid if we ever went down to one income, if I was in maternity leave or if I was to go part time, we can still afford all our bills. So we try as much as possible to make sure all our essential bills stays within a certain amount.

[@ChideraPeters]

Oh this is an amazing approach - love it and thanks for being here from wayyyy back ♥️♥️♥️

30% of wages on housing costs is almost not attainable these days, except your earning capacity is strong or you're sharing that responsibility with your partner.

[@ChideraPeters]

True

[@ibphysicsclassroom]

So it's possible

Would be really helpful if you could list your chapters by their actual name. Not just generically Point 1, Point 2, Point 3, etc. Think of your viewers and usability?

That emergency fund serious business 👏🏾

[@olufemianthony6224]

I'm telling u,we have to be intentional to achieve this

[@misschevy6520]

It’s 4 or 4.5 which is £16000 for £40k

[@kaskaskaskaskaskaskaskas]

Great video :) but guys don't worry about your credit score the UK doesn't use score only the CRA who give you it use it and lenders do not see it. For example Credit Karma will lower your score if you have a higher credit card balance than the previous month even though you pay it in full, but banks don't penalise you for that as long as you manage your credit history well. It's your credit history that matters lenders want to see you not persistently rolling over previous months' balance and maxing all your available credit. Source: I am a mortgage underwriter.

[@ChideraPeters]

lol love the casual brag at the end 😂

[@lizzyewelum3541]

Exactly what my mortgage Advicer said

[@kaskaskaskaskaskaskaskas]

@@ChideraPeters 😄😄 had to didn't want to look like i'm making stuff up haha

[@kaskaskaskaskaskaskaskas]

@@lizzyewelum3541 Yeah lenders have their own scoring system in line with their own risk appetite and affordability criteria. When I'm doing a manual review I'm literally reading at the credit account history that you see on your Experian report for example. I've declined a 999 score due to bad credit conduct and approved a fair score because of good credit conduct.

[@emilysem]

Good good content thank u

[@ChideraPeters]

You're welcome

Sister who can help me find a council house if I went to UK for the first time and I don't have family there?

[@milolaahmed]

Is it okay to open an LISA account when you do not know when you want to buy a house yet?

[@ugonnaubaka5048]

Currently in same boat If you open one, you can only use funds from it to buy a house or during retirement 😢

[@ChideraPeters]

Yes! It’s okay. You can open it and just put £10 there

[@blessings_o]

What is LISA account please

[@michellejoia]

It’s 4.5

[@ChideraPeters]

I mentioned this. I said some lenders can give up to 4 or 4.5, not sure if you missed it

[@rosemondamanor4018]

[@ChideraPeters]

I’m doing fine, thanks for asking ♥️

[@gudeboindy6674]

Do this or that, you people just dey spoil market for people weh dey live in the UK.

[@angelajohn1327]

This channel is now about how to buy a house. No clear direction,is it lack of content or what?

[@ChideraPeters]

Lol 😂 come and beat me. I’m allowed to share whatever I like please 🙏🏽. It’s my channel for a reason and I’m allowed to evolve. Everything I share still resolves around one central theme - which is life in the U.K.

@@ChideraPeters don't even waste energy replying to people like this - you do you girl!
