Well, I would never understand this math :D Even if almost all in my family work as mortgage brokers. Mortgage brokers are an essential part of the mortgage process, and they are paid pretty well. I live in Uk, and here the best firm is Mortgage Advice Sheffield, so if you're thinking about buying a home in Sheffield or anywhere else in the UK, consider this an option. I think that nowadays almost nobody can buy a house on their own, I don't know if it's a salary issue or market prices or some kind of economy crisis. I hope things change for the better.
