What is the "average" amount of mortgages these da
I would be interested to hear any views or get your thoughts on the following ...
Just wondering - what is the "average" amount of mortgages these days?
My wife and I want to move house at the moment, currently we owe about €140 K on a house valued at about €430 K. To me this is a "huge" mortgage and I find the idea of increasing our borrowings even further terrifying - we are both in jobs where we earn about €50 K per annum.
Several people I know have found my attitude quite amusing - seeming to imply that we have quite a small mortgage by current standards.
What's happened? did I miss the day at school when the teacher explained that borrowings of over a hundred thousand euros is no big deal ?
Am I just being a stick in the mud? should I lighten up, get with the program and borrow a few more quid to move to our even bigger dream house?
Like I say any of your thoughts would be appreciated !!
