If you look at rented accomodation prices compared to an average repayment mortgage cost there is no comparison. Renting is dead or lost money and if you get on a repayment mortgage, over time your mortgage is coming down and hopefuly the equity going up. Ok not at today's climate but i am confident things will get back to normal in the property market. Maybe with the fall in prices it is now the right time to sell, buy and up-size, get the economy back on it's feet and don't be afraid!
