#230 Buying a House in the UK

Michael Lavers
About this episode

A listener requested a topic on the housing market in the UK, so I thought I'd give it a shot and make it as interesting as I can. In this episode, I talk about the housing crisis the UK is currently going through, my own experience with buying a house and share some interesting sayings and idioms too.

As always, we look at lots of useful and high-level vocabulary. Do you know the word 'insurmountable'? Let's learn it today!
