\"\"One in seven people say they will never be able to afford a home, according to new research from Aviva.<\/p>\n

The survey found that 90% want to own their own home.<\/p>\n

Aviva has also found that 40% of those asked do not think buying a home will be an affordable option within the next 10 years.<\/p>\n

Ann O’Keeffe from Aviva says a significant amount of people are struggling to meet rising house prices.<\/p>\n

Ms O’Keeffe said: “Often the burden of rent is becoming too great and a consistent figure from our research is that 90% of people want to buy a home.<\/p>\n

“However, when we dug into that number only half of those thought that they might be able to do so in the next five years.<\/p>\n

“And 28% of the other half of people actually now think that they will never be able to buy a home.”<\/p>\n
