I am in process of selling my present house and buying a house with my partner who is 15 weeks pregnant.
The house is going to need significant work immediately. We have a limited budget.
The house is needing rewire, new kitchen and carpeting.
I have started off being confident but am doubting self with regard to organizing items and moving house. I have Sarah Beeney's last price guide which is several years out of date.
Can people recommend any guides, advising on haggling with trades, project managing jobs.
Unfortunately with pregnancy my lovely partner is cognitively and physical not able at present to proof my actions to a level she would do previously.
Can anyone recommend guides, books idiot guides I can reference.
