affordable?
I'm looking into renting a house with my partner, its a 2 bedroom in the norwich area, rent is �550 a month excluding bills. We have a joint income of around �1900 on average a month. Honestly, will we be able to afford this move? thinking about monthly bills etc. also anyone got any rough ideas on average monthly bills (i know it depends on the household and the individual) any help would be great! thanks!

Council tax �100
Gas/ Electric �80
Water Rates �30
Phone/internet �25
Contents insurance �20
Tv licence = �12
That makes 'essential bills' to be in the region of �250 per month - this is very approximate, but a lot you can find out beforehand, such as council tax and water rates.
So your monthly spend is now �800, plus other essentials: travel costs and food and personal spending on clothes and so on.
