    So, it’s pretty common to get a mortgage when buying a house rather then purchasing cash up front.

    It’s pretty common to not be able to borrow more than 4x your income and to need to put down a 10% (or more) deposit if you want a half decent rate. Do you know a lot of under-25s who have £30k in self-made savings (not family wealth) and earning salaries of £68k a year to be able to qualify for a £270k mortgage?
