If you were a Londoner you wouldn't have a studio flat to sell and wouldn't have a chance of retiring at all let alone early.

We have a housing market now where early career university lecturers can't afford to live near their work, never mind fire fighters or primary school teachers.

Point is, what to do.

If I was a Londoner I'd quickly swap my Colindale studio flat for a 5-bed house in Wales, even if it is out in Flintshire. Or buy a 3-bed house in Flintshire and retire early off the difference.
