KAITY and Keelan set themselves a challenge to save for a family home in just six months after their son Remy was born.
With the clock ticking, the couple put themselves on a takeaway ban and banned meals out to scrabble together the £9,400 for a deposit for their two-bedroom home in time.
Kaity, 26, and Keelan, 27, had been living with Kaity’s parents, but they decided they needed to buy their own home to raise baby Remy.
But they suffered a blow early in the process after realising they would only be able to get a mortgage in Kaity’s name.
At the time Keelan was newly self-employed so mortgage companies would not take his wage into account when they were applying.
