We accepted an offer to sell our property a few weeks ago. Contracts have been sent by our Solicitor to the vendor with a closing date for the end of April. The purchaser has arranged for a survey to be carried out but as yet I do not think a valuation has been requested for the property.
We are planning on renting another house for a while before looking to purchase another property as I’m due baby no 2 in early August and don’t think I could cope with the stress of looking for a new house until after the new baby is born.
We don’t want to find ourselves in the situation that we have signed a new lease on a property and the purchaser has pulled out. If we are renting another property, do we need to wait until contracts for the sale of the property have been signed or wait even longer? We know that there is no guarantees that the sale is going to go through but we need to have somewhere to put our stuff and be able to move in somewhere as well before we sell our own property.
Any advice please.
