It’s the buying property topic again!
I’m starting to look at buying and I wonder if anyone has ever bought with 5percent deposit?
Since the interest rate are higher on that type of mortgage, then the total amount to repay could potentially make you fall into the negative equity side. Has anyone successfully manage to step into the property ladder with that mortgage type? Also not making any loss?

Does anyone know how to make their resume look more manager like? My resume shows:

- I have the skills and experience.

Dear Fishbowl PPCers I need your help!

A client is insisting we used Adobe bod manager for their campaigns, and neither me nor my team have experience with it.

I'm on my own. Or am I?

Hoping some kind soul with experience managing Google Ads through Adobe can help me out.

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything.

I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

With interest rates rising, am I better off paying off over paying my fixed term mortgage or investing over the next 4-5 years?
Mortgage rate is fixed for 5 years at a fairly low 1.99%. I could plough in extra cash to reduce overall interest over the years.
If I were to invest, I’d probably hold in cash for a few months and get into a regular investment in the market towards end of the year.
