Question: how much money do i need to make to own a house?
Answer: Generally, you need to try to save at least 5% to 20% of the cost of the home you would like. For example, if you want to buy a home costing £150,000, you'll need to save at least £7,500 (5%). Saving more than 5% will give you access to a wider range of cheaper mortgages available on the market.
