Tell me about it.I was looking into trying to buy a flat recently. I've got a decent deposit saved up but I can't afford the £15-30 grand over the asking price that isn't covered by a mortgage.
National companies (that work with big oil companies) struggle to keep staff up here because local competitors can charge less and pay staff more.

one of my friends bought a flat in Ferryhill for 70K in 1997.She just sold it at a ridiculous profit.
The BBC were reporting that property up there has done 100% growth over the last ten years and average rents for flats are a grand a month. Mental.
