We SOLD our house in one day but STILL can not find a place to buy and that was in November! We are now living with my mum and Dad so It can get a little cosy but its cool. There are so many senarios you can go through... you may have an offer before it goes to auction or someone may want a longer settlement date. You need to be as flexible as possible and buying before hand really ties your hands up. Dont be in such a hurry too, how much do you like this new house? There really is so many places out there for sale you always find something else....always!
Well i certainly wouldnt, even if it was the most perfect dream house. If its meant to be then it will happen (after your house is sold) and if not, something else will come along when the time is right.
Thanks for your responses so far girls. Pretty much what I expected to hear
It's just that DH is so gung ho all the time, and leaves all the thinking and logistics of it all to me.
Bridging is a possibility, but like you have all mentioned, I am not too keen on the expense of it. And Mel, spoke to our conveyancer today who did mention the condition you mentioned. I have never heard of that though, or anyone using it, so wasnt sure if that was a real possibility. Sounds like it is though, but as you say, will be a hard one to get past the vendor.
Thanks again all, you have given me much food for thought x
