We are retired and are looking to make our final house move. To afford our dream bungalow we would have to increase our budget quite a bit. We would still have some savings but I worry it might not be enough for the future. We are in our late 60s with decent pensions. This property does not need very much doing to it other than painting etc, while cheaper ones need a bit more work. When both of us were working we could replace our savings quickly but not so much now. I worry with the NHS in the state it is in we may have to pay to go private in the future, although we dont have any health problems now. Has anyone retired and bought a more expensive property to get the location they wanted and regretted it later because they used up too much of their savings, or were they glad they did.
apple trees not flowering this year. Anyone else?
