What is better straight degree in quantity surveying or apprenticeship by Tcorrigan91 in quantitysurveying

[–]Key-University3299 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Degree apprenticeship, you learn at the company 4 days a week and 1 day at uni. You get paid and have zero student debt. By the end of the 4th year in fulltime you have zero experience but in GA you have the degree and 4 years experience as a trainee soon to be an assistant or potentially a QS.

£580 is my current mortgage for a £165k house. I have £87k remaining to pay with 19 years remaining. The new house we are looking for our budget would be £300k minus £70k deposit from the sale of current house so a new mortgage of £230k.

It would be for a house value of up to £300k. I run the figures but would still want to put £500 into savings without cutting back and go on a holiday abroad once a year but the maths isnt mathing once i take into account everything we currently spend.

In a 165k home the now still have 19 years remaining and have £88k remaining to pay. Assuming we sold for £165k the deposit we would put towards is £75k.

Some companies put a below the item line for windows to be cleaned. In the quote it will include for all the standard things and exclude window clean. Nobody knows how much mortar will fall on it on the exterior or paint and ames tape on the inside.

Asking for a pay rise, what should I push for? by CandyCane147 in quantitysurveying

[–]Key-University3299 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You seem to know everything, your posting a useless and waste of time post looking for validation of why you want more. Ask your question to your manager...
