In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

If it were me I would buy somewhere and give the LL notice after exchange. If the LL wants you out earlier and serves the correct notice and wants you out in January you still don’t have to move out until you are ready.
There’s lots of posts about this, have a look G-Ms stickies, there’s tons of helpful (and reliable) information.0 -
I would also like to buy, but I am very cautious because economic growth all over the world is sinking quite rapidly, and a global recession (in fact the first ever more or less synchronised global recession) is on the cards. Markets, including the stock market and property market, will not avoid getting sucked into any financial maelstrom.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.
