Call You and Yours: Have housing costs forced you to move back in with your parents?

You and Yours

Available for over a year

On today's Call You and Yours, we're asking - have housing costs forced you to move back in with your parents? Rents are high. People are spending more of their wages on rent than at any time in the last 10 years - 28 percent on average according to Zoopla. The latest census also showed greater numbers of adult children still living with their parents. Rising prices are making it harder for people to save for a deposit to buy a house. Rising interest rates are making mortgages less affordable. Are housing costs forcing you to live with your parents? Are you a parent with grown-up children living at home? That number to call is 03700 100 444. The lines are open now. Whatever your experience, please get in touch. You can call us from 11 am on Tuesday June 20th.
