Are you ‘ready’ to move?
Get your own home up for sale first
Many buyers have to sell an existing home before being able to move. Some people think it is best to find the property to buy before going on the market. This is a recipe for disappointment. If your own home is not even up for sale, then when you find your ideal purchase you are unlikely to be able to secure it quickly. Any offers you make will be put to the seller as being ‘subject to sale of their own property’ first. Unfortunately that puts you at a disadvantage against other bidders who may already have found a buyer or have the cash available. There are instant valuation tools available on our website. Feel free to give it a go and get an idea, and get your own house in order first. Ideally put your property on the market at the earliest opportunity.
