Still, beats the £3.5k a month in Manhattan for an apartment when my daughter left uni & worked in NYC for 5 months. Big city prices are absurd in all 'Western' nations.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
Can you not get some work outside Durham and buy a nice 4 bed house in the country? New builds have paper thin, internal dividing walls and rooms are tiny.
Or what about Chelmsford, Brentwood, Romford and Ilford? Used to be faster on the train in than from east to the city IIRC and driving is ten times faster than the North Circular.
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
From the HO website: "You don’t have to transfer your visa - you can carry both your old and new passports when travelling to or from the UK instead.".
So it's good enough for exit and entry purposes, but not for financing a mortgage? I'd be looking for a different mortgage advisor before anything else.
When I was looking to buy it's easy as a non-professional property buyer to get caught up in the whole mindset of "I've got to have this one." *Stress*... got to be this one.... there will never be this one again.
I was stressing like that on the way back from a gig and me bass player says, "Don't worry about it. Flats and houses, there's loads of them. Every street you go down is full of them." And it's genius: If you don't get one... there will be another!
Good luck with it Drew. Don't stress about it. But might be best not to commit to something you're not truly comfortable with at the moment.
