micheller said:Yes nelly- agree, havn't bought anything new in what seems like an age. Wedding should come in ~17K. 7K paid already, 2k to pay month after and about 8K on day. This is all manageable through our savings.
Thankfully, we are in the position of being able to look at a comparibly low cost housing option due to the kindness of family (building) and will see some equity realisation to add to our mortgage 'input'.
I'm just crossing everything that the planning comes through. Hopefully that will fix us up for a whileIf it doesn't....
micheller said:Wexfordguy, like I stated already, the equity realisation value will also help (of value of the plot we will be gifted if we get planning permisson, hopefully)
We will still be getting a mortgage to complete the build. We have already talked to banks about this and they seem quite happy.
So, hopefully, we'll get our planning permission. Thanks for your help though.

The Original post was from January this year.
When we were declined back then, we revised our plans to what I mentioned today. Almost June, 5 months later.
The thread might make more sense if you reread it now?
micheller said:Hi msmyth, We're looking at sq ftg of 1410 for ourselves.
We also have to demolish & rebuild an extension on the existing house to make way for ours- the extension will be about 4x4m.
I say all this with everything crossed for the PP! I'm a bit of a worrier
I've been given a total max guideline for all this at around 240K. We're going to go through a contractor too. I've seen people on here given much lower figures for self builds- if you look in home and garden, there's some great people over there.

Making changes to existing res and building in the remainder of plot. (hopefully!!!)
