Where the rate bands sit on an Uxbridge purchase
Lenders price in bands. Crossing from 95% to 90% borrowing, then to 85%, usually moves you to a cheaper rate. On the local average those thresholds are £22,500, £45,000 and £67,500.
The monthly difference is real. Borrowing 95% costs about £2,499 a month on our illustration, against £2,236 at 85%. That is £3,157 a year, before any rate difference between the bands is counted.
An income requirement around £67,000 is reachable for two working households and a stretch for one. The deposit usually decides it.

The years behind the deposit figure
Buying at the £450,000 Uxbridge benchmark needs household income of about £67,000, on the lending multiples used in our town guide. A household on that income saving a tenth of it puts away £6,700 a year.
At that rate a 10% deposit of £45,000 takes about 7 years.
The cash that is not the deposit
The deposit is not the only cash you need. Budget for survey, conveyancing, searches and moving.
