House prices are still going up around the UK, and despite low mortgage rates increasing numbers of people are locked out of the property market.
The problem is particularly acute for ethnic minorities, with figures showing those from BME backgrounds are much less likely to be homeowners than white Britons.
We would like to hear from people from BME backgrounds about their experiences of the housing market, whether they are thinking of buying or not and whatever their personal circumstances.
