Where to begin, indeed.
James Langworth doesn’t have any cash to put down as a deposit on a house in the UK. His two buy to lets have no spare equity in them. So he is borrowing £100,000 secured on his French house to put down as a deposit on a UK house. Presumably he is then going to borrow the rest in the UK.
He now has a Euro mortgage – paid for with Sterling wages and also a Sterling mortgage. He is 100% mortgaged. If the pound devalues further against the euro he will have to pay more pounds sterling to service his euro mortgage.
On top of all that, the house is also devaluing!
Madness.
