in House buying, renting & selling
Hi all

I'm looking to sell my flat in the next 9 months and was wondering what order to do things. Do I find a buyer for my flat then find a house that I want to buy, or do I find a house that I like and make and offer before finding a buyer for my flat? Or is it a combination of this???

Thanks for your thoughts.

    If you make an offer without a buyer, you will not be taken seriously.So look for your dream property while finding a buyer & make an offer when you have accepted one on yours.
    HTH.

    I thought that might be that answer...just sounds quite difficult with lots of things hopefully coming together at the same time! :)
