So here’s the thing. Parents worry that their kids will never get on the housing ladder, unless:
- They give them lots of money
- The kids become footballers or drug dealers
- They get huge mortgages; or
- House prices fall.
The latter, of course, is great in theory as long as it’s not our house price which falls because they’re letting anyone who asks put up 500 new-builds in the field at the bottom of our garden. It’s a another dilemna.
