is the issue, the devide between white people and people of color, alot of blacks asians arabs, actually are doing fine in london, and know ways to make alot of money, but they wont dare have that conversation with, racism dose not get you far, it isolates breaks down and then kills you slowly

Makes so much sense purchasing a house together. Life is short do what makes you happy. When we bought our house people were like why did you buy that wreck laughing at us etc... A few years on and we now have a beautiful home and no regrets. Congrats the house looks great x

Plutonic life partners 🤗. Love that you’re both on the same page and everything is done ‘proper’. You’re both really good examples of sensible, level headed people. Also, love your friendship…. Happy New Home guys ♥️

Thank You For Today’s Video My 2 Dearest Friends: LUKE And ZARA- I’m A 55 Year Old Married Woman And It Took Me 36 Years To Finally Own My Own Home. My Husband And I Are High School Sweethearts And It Took Us A Very Long Time To Get Where We At Now. Having To Support My Family And My Husband’s Family It Took Forever But, We Conquered At The End. I’m So Proud Of You Both To Reach Your Dreams Of Getting Your Own Home. Both of Your Parents Must Be Proud Of You. Have A Blessed Day And Stay Warm- From: Your Friend Always In San Antonio, Texas USA🤠🇺🇸❤️🥰

Hi Luke and Zara a really brilliant video. My son at 25 has just bought his first flat . I'm so proud of him ,he's done so well . He always compares his self to others and doesn't realise how brilliant at the age of 25 it is to be able to buy your own home . He's not with anyone .so has done it all on his own X X you two are brilliant and should be very proud of yourselves X x

My son similar. Bought his own house 3 years ago. He’s 29 now. All on his own. He doesn’t realise what an achievement it is. I bought my first home a flat at 22 but with my husband (his dad). Your son has done so well. X

You two are amazing and your families should be so proud of what you have achieved at such a young age. You have such determination and common sense, you know what you want and let's hope it all comes your way. Very well done you two and thanks for sharing with us all xx Huge hugs for Maggie xx

Thank you for your honesty, buying a house is a huge investment. I've brought and lost my home. I'm happy to say I am now back on the property ladder. This time I'm in it with eyes wide open

Buying a house is such a big thing. I remember when I bought my first flat with a friend to get on that ladder and I was in my 30s, deposit was very low at the time as it was in the 80s since then we have moved on. Then venture on my own and bought my flat. Kudos to you guys getting on that property ladder, as in this millennium it’s isn’t that easy ❤

Hi Luke, Zara you should both be very very proud of yourselves its obvious it has not coming easy and you both appreciate your hard work. Enjoy every moment xx

Well done you guys !!! I’m 56 and rent still luckily enough to have a Housing Association home but there’s absolutely no way I could rent private You guys should be very proud

Good morning to both of you. I BELIEVE YOU TWO SHOULD BE SO PROUD OF YOUR SELVES AND YOU HAVE NO NEED TO JUSTIFY YOURSELVES TO ANYBODY. YOU HAVE BOTH WORKED SINCE COMING OUT OF UN AND YOU HAVE BOTH WORKED TOGETHER, WHICH IS THE KEY. YOU SHOULD ENJOY YOUR NEW HOME AND TIMES WILL BE TOUGH, BUT WORK TOGETHER AND THINGS WILL BE GOOD. 💞💞💞

That’s was my thoughts on this, don’t apologise for reaching one of your goals . It’s no way boastful or showing off. You achieved this by hard work and saving, it wasn’t handed to you on a plate!, you both made this happen and bloody well done for doing it!

Such a sensible, straightforward video. I hope you get huge views for this because you've talked about aspects a lot of people won't even have considered when house hunting. Well done both of you! xx

You can tell with zaras voice this is a very emotional thing to have gone through, you both should be very proud of yourselves. I really enjoy watching your videos.

Thank you for being so honest. You have done so well and I love seeing what you do with your home x

I think you two have made a great decision on your near future. Live your life step by step. That suits you now, so go ahead. Enjoy your new life together and with your families. Plan your upgrades and enjoy every minute. Overall, do whatever you feel it's the moment for. After all, its your life. I'm sure many people will appreciate yout tips. I bought my flat with my then husband. After three years living there, we separated our lives. I paid the mortgage by myself and took care of my son almost by myself as well. These last years, after ending my mortgage of 20 years I've made some renovations: flooring, bathrooms, kitchen, doors and of course have been changing furniture all over the place. My home doesn't look anything like it was 23 years ago when we bought it. I have a truly cozy home which I'm very proud of. Being so young and achieving so much is a real success. Well done you two!

Just so much sensible advice for folks who want to buy…so pleased for you guys and Maggie happy home ❤

Although I’m not planning to buy any time soon, it’s always interesting to hear the process and I’m glad it’s all worked out in the end for you!

So proud of you two your sensible and level headed. Such a beautiful relationship . Good luck on all your future projects

So nice to see you both settled and excited for your projects. A lot of sense said in this video, so proud of you both (and Maggie of course) and very happy that you persevered and now have all the choices ahead of you xx

You have achieved so much together. Just want to say good luck with all your future home projects. I really look forward to following your progress. xx

Hi Luke and Zara , this was a great video for those who are starting out on the property ladder. The advice you gave was sensible and concise . For such young people you are both very switched on ! So happy for you both 😊

I’ve loved following your house buying process and it’s so lovely to see you in such a fabulous home. Thank you for sharing the process, your struggles were real but the way you have coped with things has been so inspiring.

Loved this!! Also Zara so nice to see you reveal more of your lovely personality, who you ARE. You both inspire me. ❤

I was the first in my family to purchase a flat and had so few close people to ask, I was buying on my own, my solicitor got used to my odd questions, and then my building society was pushing one type of mortgage over another as did friends. So get advice and opinions I am so glad I listened to my gut the way I went down helped me to be mortgage-free earlier than so many friends. Good luck on the future journey

This was a great vlog. Loved how candid you both are... some great advice and tips. Thank you for sharing. 😊

Great video. You two are so switched on and mature for your age. You're like brother and sister but in a nice way as you get on so well together.😊 Looking forward to seeing what you do with your home as those white walls are crying out for some colour.

I love that you did this at such a young age. You are right about couples buying and then divorcing a year later. Nothing is guaranteed in life. Your home is fab and love that Maggie has a yard.

i thought you both were together. But it seems to be a nice friendship you have and a nice bond of respect for each other. So happy for you Luke and Zara on your biggest achievement. I saved for two long years to buy my house. I have a three bedroom and been here now for 15 years. The thing where I live in Pittsburgh PA USA the newspaper publishes how much you paid in the real-estate section and also on our Allegheny County website you have to put the address in and township or county. Such nonsense but it is public knowledge. Why I even had the man up the street come down to my house and tell me I paid too much money for the house. I was so mad and embarrassed at the same time. The nerve! I bought later in my life not young like you two. Younger is better. Can't wait for you next video.

Nothing falls into your lap you have to work hard for it and well done to you both for doing it, just enjoy your home ❤

Fantastic video. I would be spectacularly proud to have you two as children, cheers to your parents. You also deserve mad praise for being such sweet and responsible pet parents. I wish every dog could have a home like Maggie. I know you don’t advertise exactly where you live but I’m so curious to know the very general area. If I may say you absolutely did the right thing to stay in London. “When a man is tired of London he is tired of life.” ❤Laura from Las Vegas

Love watching you both. Well done and congratulations on your new home 🏡

Can I just say how amazing you two are? Just love your honestly, enthusiasm and openness about your new home, life, etc. I wholeheartedly agree that some people just pry too much, and frankly it's none of their business! I have been subscribed for about a year and look forward to each video and adventure you share. Happy New Year Luke and Zara, and Princess Magatha! 💕

Zara’s explanation of your background and working to just pay rent in a job she hated was incredibly helpful and encouraging. Thank you Zara for sharing this vulnerability

Loved the video thank you luke and Zara 💙❤️❤well done and congratulations on your beautiful home 🏡and not forgetting hello maggie🐶🥰

You two are wise beyond your years!! You have vision for your house and patience to take the time it needs. I'm so happy for you. It must be wonderful having a mold-free warm bathroom!!😁 I'm looking forward to the changes you two will be making (especially color on the walls!)! ENJOY YOUR HOME! You've certainly earned it!

I’m old enough to be your Mom and I’m so proud of you both! There is no guarantees in life so do what works and makes you both happy. You both are such a lovely couple even as friends! ❤

Wishing you Luke, Zara and Maggie, lots of good luck and much deserved happiness in your new home x

I saw a different side of Zara in this video. Congrats on getting a home - in London - before your 30’s. Be very proud of what you’ve accomplished.

How refreshing to watch you both. So level-headed and honest.I do watch other KZreadrs, but you're both my absolute favourite. Keep doing what you're doing as you ARE doing so well. Well done .👏 👍❤️

Applause. Probably one of your best ever! We learned such a lot! Thank you Luke and Zara! Really well explained, as it can be SO complicated and confusing!👏

Thanks for being so open and honest about everything. I’m sure this advice will be very helpful to some people. Friendships like this are rare, you guys are so lovely 🥰 Well done to both of you, you obviously worked so hard to achieve this, well deserved 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼xx

I think you have done an amazing job in planning, preparing and finding a property that suits all of you. Well done! Onward and upward from here on in!

Very well said! This was so generous and kind of you both to share and answer questions on this wonderful personal journey! Luke & Zara you are such level headed, smart and wonderful individuals you should be so very proud of yourselves. All the very best, you both are just awesome young adults...well done! Your personal private life should be just that private...Zara I was so very proud of what you said starting @24:45 apprx ...so very well said...good for you! Please give Maggie a hug for me. Thank you for sharing, take really good care, stay well! Lots of love Kathy x 🧡

Your so honest guys love the bond you have 🐺

Well done guys, it’s a terrifying yet exciting buying a house. We bought our first at 20 years old & it was exciting but costly, it was 1991 & interest rates were crazy! At 30 we bought our current home & was terrified at the price compared to our first, but you move up the ladder 😊 During Covid years we didn’t go on holiday but saved every penny we weren’t spending & March 22 had enough to pay off our mortgage! At 52 years old we were chuffed to bits 😊 Keep working hard & enjoy the fruits of your labour, you both deserve it so much 🥰

good for you guys! protect your friendship at all costs.

Wisdom has no age. Thank you for sharing.

I have loved watching you grow into becoming homeowners. Your relationship is your business, or should that be friendationship. I watched Chateau dairies, and Stephanie Jarvis purchased a chateau with her best friend. I love the way you do you and that you both just get on living your best life. You have a unique friendship, and that's something that should be celebrated. My daughter graduated last year and had to move to north Wales just to afford rental prices with her choice of employment. It takes a brave soul to step out into the world and make bold choices and not settle for the status quo. Cannot wait to see your plans and designs for this new chapter and new home. I wish you both all the best and lots of abundant blessings, love, and laughter xxx

I think it's lovely what you have done buying a place together you are great friends and it works out well living together so why not do it. Wishing you both all the best for 2024 love your new home.

Brilliant video. So proud of you both, you have both worked so hard for this and you both deserve it. Very informative, and I am sure, helpful to those in a similar position. I am excited for the renovations, Luke’s cookbook (fingers crossed) and Zara continuing with her cooking too ☺️ you are both very level headed and a credit to your families. Keep the videos coming xx

Hi Luke and Zara, love your honesty, you should be so proud of yourselves , such a huge achievement at a relatively young age , you both speak so eloquently, wishing you both lots of luck and happiness in your new home , Sending you all lots of love xxx

This was so well done, good of you to share your insights. Made up for you both x

Fantastic video guys. 2 minutes in and Zara had me in stitches! 🤣🤣 fab advice and very interesting too. I don’t get why people are questioning 2 friends buying together, I think it’s a brilliant idea! You guys obviously get on fantastic and better than a lot of married couples! 😅 looking forward to seeing where this year takes you both. Much love. ❤️ xx

Very interesting vlog and good advice. I’m curious how you meet each other initially? Love your cooking ideas Luke. Thank you. X

You guys are so intelligent, disciplined and wise. Also your aesthetic sense is great. Bravo! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Such a great video filled with sound advice. Well done, I love following your journey 💕

I haven't watched you for a while and was very excited to find out you'd finally bought a place. Well done you two! You totally deserve this because of all your hard work and determination. I have clicked Subscribe and look forward to your renovation journey. xx

I think you are both sensible and have entered into your house purchase with maturity. To have something in writing is so important. No one wishes to divorce, fall out of friendship or just want to move on. Not that i imagine it would happen to you. I should mention that the house had to be sold as we divorced...i made £5 from that sale, hard to believe One thing that does infuriate me is trying to compare the past with the now. I bought a house in Greenwich over 40 years ago. A lovely house, small but perfect for our needs. It was £36k or there abouts. It was a massive struggle... we didnt earn a huge amount but stretched to do it. Everything in life is relevant, time especially. People would gasp at a house for that price but sometimes it was difficult to make ends meet. Renovations were on hold as the bills came first. People worked hard to pay for their houses back in the day. Overtime was a must for most of my peers. It wasnt easy for our generstion either. Congratulations to you both and good luck in your journey

You are both level-headed individuals with a good sense of direction which is marvelous, your parents must be so proud of you both. love to you both and Maggie. xxx

Well done you two. Such a level headed pair at a very young age. Good luck in all you do it is a pleasure to follow you, and i am old lol!!x

Hi Guys, I think this vlog was so nice of you to do, a lot of this stuff was nobody's business but your own, but you realise that doing the Channel as you do Luke you become like we all know you. A kind of extended family of sorts, please forgive me being so forward. I see people asking some very personal questions and I am often amazed at their boldness. However, buying a property together although slightly unconventional, actually works for you both. I think your relationship is such a special one and you do seem to have taken this on with your eyes wide open and covered all eventualities, after all what will be, will be. There are no certanties in this life, and if you don't ever dip your toe in that water, how will you ever know if it will work out? Your help and advice to other people out there thinking of buying a home, I am sure has been so valuable to them. It is scary, my hubby and I are in our mid 60's, we are lucky enough to own our home now after being married for some 41 years. We are currently in our 4th house and buying doesn't get any easier. Things have changed such a lot and we are about to embark upon moving again, the prospect at our age actually fills me with dread, but hey! like you guys, we know each other very well, we are a good team and we have faith in each other to make anything work. Love seeing and hearing all your plans with this house, looking forward to see how it all pans out, it is such fun and a privilage to watch. Thank you both for letting us share this journey with you x

This is a fantastic video with great advise. Well done and thank you.

You to are such level headed young people, well done for purchasing your house . Your parents most be so proud of you. ♥️

Excellent advice to people buying a home for the first time! You both have done very well! Congratulations to you both.

I found that post to be engaging and informative.Well done you two.Good luck.

Great video guys and I bet it's going to be so helpful to others out there starting off on the ladder. I'm coming to the end of my mortgage and now retired. My sister bought a house with her friend over 35 years ago and you can imagine the comments they got at that time! Anyway 10 years later my sister met her husband and moved out to buy a house with him but the house had increased in value by then and it was easy for her friend to remortgage and buy her out. They had legalized everything so there was no animosity and they remained best friends until my sister's friend sadly died 9 years ago, with my sister beside her holding her hand. They were best friends for over 50 years and their friendship outlasted many marriages!

Well done you guys...you really are looking to the future...and planning what is best for you. I wish you well.

Well done to you both owning your own home at such a young age you should be so proud of yourselves.Hope you both have a long and happy friendship together and not forgetting Maggie too.

Thank you Luke and Zara, what a great vlog, I think you have helped a lot of people. I think that real estate agents are like used car sales people, not to be trusted. You looked at everything, took your time, discussed everything together and in the end you both made an excellent decision and learned a great deal. Good luck to you both and of course Maggie who is beautiful.

Can I just say Zara is looking fabulous, that shirt looks fantastic on her and her skin is glowing. Zara needs to do a makeup slot on one of your videos Luke!

Excellent advise from you both but Zara you are so eloquent at explaining how your situation works x It’s amazing that at 25 you both have your first home and in London honestly you are both amazing xx Hope you are both having a wonderful evening with miss Maggie xxxxx

Such a good video ,well done both of you xx

Morning both 😃 Think I'm first? Had to let the hens out 😊

Bless both of you, your lives, your business. Looking forward to hearing about the house projects as they happen.

Loved watching the two of you together you are both so level headed you have done so well love to the three of you ❤

I think what you two are doing is awesome!!! I look forward to seeing what you do to the house!!! Well done!

Such wonderful people! You two are so level headed and smart. Congratulations on a job well done to both of you! God blessed you both so very much. And he knows your hearts and will continue to! Love from Missouri USA

Hi Luke and Zara you should both be so proud of yourselves. You are two lovely grounded people who deserve the best. ❤

Well done you two, you have worked out what works for you both, very good advice, hubby and l remember it well even after 35years, you do make sacrifices and work hard but great that you have your own front door may you both have lots of happy years in your new home together xx

You two (three including Maggie), are amazing. Thanks for the video, my son is saving to buy and, as you say, talking or in this case listening to people who have gone through it is priceless 👍 💪 🏡

Love this… thanks both for sharing 😊😊😊😊😊

Hi Zara and Luke. Great inspiring video pitched just right to give an insight to other young people what is achievable. Well done both of you.

Brilliant video, Well said Zara! Of course buying a home with a friend makes sense. Couples spilt up and argue over their joint purchase and house contents ad infinitum making themselves miserable. Good friends are highly unlikely to do that. Love your new home - it looks wonderful xx

Luke and Zara, I enjoyed this video immensely! I've been following your 'journey' since 2019 and I wish you both continued success! I love your new home and I look forward to watching all future videos. Happy 2024! Lots of love to you both and especially to 'Miss Magatha Moo!' ❤

It is trust in each other that finds you in this house together and the journey of home ownership with it's ups and downs. Just a little comment and it is delicate. 40+ years ago low wages and sky high interest rates were a nightmare, this was and is a fact. Years ago in the 70's the emphasis was buy your home and pay your mortgage as priority, do without foreign holidays and going out for meals. If you want to own a property you have to do without certain things. So at 19 and 21 we bought our first house worked extremely hard and enjoyed the fruits of our labours with fantastic homes over the years with no regrets. Attitudes have changed and priorities have, I think Zara made a comment which no one could disagree with "you are only in your 20's once". You make your choice and choose your lifestyle, get the balance right and you have cracked it. Just enjoy life, if you are with a friend or partner it doesn't matter as long as you support each other when problems happen. Good luck for the future.

You two are major achievers in so many aspects of your lives. 👏 Congratulations x

Thank you for sharing your journey. Both of you are approaching life sensibly. Live your best life with kindness, laughter and passion. Love both of you ❤❤ and of course Maggie ♥️🦴

I seldom comment on youtube content. But bloody well done you two. The hard work and dedication to buy a property in London at your age is a bloody amazing. I know this is not important to you, but i am proud of you and i dont even know you. Well done both.

A good practical video with helpful tips. I bought a house in 2003 and again in 2022 and it is so stressful, but worth it in the end

You two are adorable, kind and funny. Wish you good times ahead, you deserve them!

Well done both of you on your achievement to date you clearly worked very hard so why not bask in the glory of your achievement youve earned it. On one hand it seems a shame you feel you had to go into all the detail documenting your journey to appease anyone who feels resentful towards you but on the other hand by doing so youve given a realistic & balanced view of what it takes. Everything in life comes with ups & downs nothing can be achieved any other way. Great vlog, look forward to watching more of your videos 😊

The most interesting and sensible couple I have heard I am now heading into my eighties but I wish I had heard all this years ago stay sensible I love listening to you both. Good luck.

Thank you for your honesty with worts and all. Fabulous vlog as always. X

You both should be very proud of each other Your hard work and planning has paid off Well done Folks 2 Beautiful people I wish you both all the best Great video ❤

You are two great and grounded young adults. The very best of everything to you both.

Have left one comment already but just wanted to come back to say, Zara I love your hair like that, rocking it girl!

You two are to be admired. Well done!!

Wow that was an excellent blog, I hope that many people looking to buy a house watches this, well done both of you, my son and his girlfriend have just bought them first house and it can be a miserable time, but it just proves if you want it enough it is in reach And I’m sorry that people say some silly things, if you and Zara are happy to buy together then that’s wonderful, just ignore the ignorant remarks, your house is fantastic happy new year ❤

Im so proud of you two achieving so much. It's not easy this day and age. Well done❤

Well done to both of you. You’re both lovely young people and you deserve your new home and all the happiness in the world for you both and Maggie too 🥰I love the beautiful friendship you have. Have a lovely week 🥰💕
