Female homeowner at 22 agrees with Kirstie Allsopp saying 'young people don't want to make sacrifices' to buy their first house

A woman who bought her first house at the age of 22 has admitted that "young people don't want to make sacrifices" to secure their own home.

Georgina Carson, 25, has revealed how her and fiance Freddy Quinn, 27, saved nearly £1,000 a month in order to buy their first home in Wigan three years ago, which went on the market at £82,500.

This comes after TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp angered first-time buyers after claiming young adults can afford to own a home despite the ever-increasing house prices.
