sonnie10: down payment doesnt affect original price, what am arguing outrigtly is saying 10% of 400k usd would build two houses in nigeria as falsely claimed by the person i replied or 40k to 50k usd 10% of average mortgage, 15 million naira can build two houses , with same rooms as a uk terrace or half duplex using blocks and cements |

Getting a mortgage house isn’t easy but then isn’t a big deal especially for an average healthcare professional in the UK. Most trained health professionals ranging from pharmacists, doctors, nurses, consultants etc earn at least £36k annually and they usually get a mortgage within 2-3years of practising. So nothing spectacular. |

tot: I suppose in the UK when you buy a house everyone assumes that you have got a mortgage, he never really said outright purchase. |

superior1: Congrats to him. But more Nigerians abroad should try to be more precise when flaunting material achievements online. Because it creates the wrong idea if not. There is a 99% chance that he bough that house on mortgage that has to be paid off monthly over 20 to 30 years. Average is 25 years. Of course it requires discipline, dedication, consistency and industry to do so over such a long period. This puts things in perspective for those not familiar with the system in the West. Such a simple post from his excitement can affect millions of Nigerians abroad more negatively than it already is. With their family members and friends left behind thinking buying a UK house is a doddle and therefore begin having outrageous expectations. Making unrealistic demands. I know what i am talking about. 4 Likes 1 Share |

supereagle: I take as an exception on the highlighted remark as an atheist who doesn’t believe in a sky daddy and whatever above means. Neither am I a fatalist who believe that success and destiny are predetermined. Everyone (in a working system in Western world) have the capacity to decide and pilot their future and become whatever they want. One’s destiny is in their hands to put it simply. 1 Like |

abnot: They never complete the story. They show flashy pictures of malls, snow laden streets and buckets of KFC chicken. They never show the 4 hour commute, the triple taxation, debts, daycare costs, utility bills, etc We all deserve to live anywhere we want but I hate when they put the locals down. Yeah Nigeria is bad but I haven’t been able to enjoy my siesta due to constant ongoing construction in my hood. 5 Likes 1 Share |

bizzibodi: Actually to qualify for a mortgage one of the major requirements aside finance is that one must have a settled status. A settled status is a person who has a permanent residence/indefinite stay, a British or EU citizens and in some cases refugees and to qualify for permanent residency one must have lived in the UK for at least 5years which he clearly hasn’t. Another crack in his story is that for the 3years he claims to have been here he must have to spend a year to run a course to enable him practice as a foreign trained doctor. Is it 2years (or less) savings of about £1k that he used to get the mortgage or he came with savings from Nigeria? Anything for clout dey sha. 1 Like |

googi: Truly, you have a serious inferiority complex masquerading as one who knows too much about people living abroad. If it helps you sleep at night, continue to decieve yourself. Now get this straight, no doctor in UK is living on handouts...infact they already have been recruited for jobs before leaving Nigeria after passing the PLAB exams. To burst your bubble, it is an exam Nigerian doctors pass with ease. You really have esteem issues. Congratulate him as it is glaring that you have not achieved anything...Jealousy. 1 Like |
