There are countless rows of houses being bulldozed in Liverpool, why does no one want them?
There has been a boom in the starter apartment/flat builds, specifically aimed at being the first step on the rung of home ownership.
Whatever bugs you, you can't turn the clock back to apportion blame to someone, it changes nothing. If you have some younger generation as part of your family, get your head down and work and loan them a few thousand to help them get started. Say you want it back when they sell it. You own your home, so you're alright.
blame? of course you can, its bad government decisions, banks being stupid by giving 5/600% of peoples income for mortgages fuelling a house price boom which was unsustainable, and as for me helping, i have to worry about my pension and future, again, because of inept government and financial sector.
as for houses being bulldozed,ask why? the council cannot build, so a PRIVATE sector housing association will be behind it.
