They did this before 2008 and it ended up being responsible for the credit crunch. Housing needs to cost an amount that doesn’t require such extreme mortgages.

I guess the people who profited from 2008 have decided it’s time for another slurp at the trough.

Current interest rates with six times my salary - not sure I could even afford the repayments.

Here comes the next house price hike wave, then.

Nationwide are also launching deals under 4%.

Six times income! Fucking heck.

Build more houses you bastards!

What could go wrong?

It’s a shame wages weren’t keeping pace.

I’m going to assume that by “some” they really mean “the rich ones where mummy and daddy have provided a massive deposit”
