Here, they give hints and tips for what to do when selling your house.

SELLING YOUR house and then buying a new one can be rewarding and having your home under offer puts you in a strong position when making offers of your own.

However, looking for a new home in this way can prove to be frustrating and stressful as trying to find both your dream home and make a prompt completion, perhaps as part of a chain, can be difficult in a short time frame.

Sometimes, we would recommend taking a step back from the house hunt and consider taking a rented property when you sell your house.

Purchasing a new property in time for completion dates dictated to accommodate the demands of other sellers can result in rushed or inappropriate choices. As a renter you can afford to take time and make more informed decisions.

Renting a property after completion continues to put you in a strong, competitive position as a purchaser, offering the advantage of not being part of a chain of sales.

It also allows you more time to find the right home, flexibility on possible completion dates and the potential to have a slow and stress free move in a broader time scale.

In addition, renting is a flexible way to live. At Bridges, rental contracts will be for an initial six months, and often become a rolling month contract after this.

We currently have a range of rental properties to suit a variety of requirements, from two bed terraces to detached properties with garages and gardens. Please visit our website or our office for more information.
