Rental nightmare!

The Thomsons · 06-08-2008, 09:08 PM

I am soooooooooo stressed

After having no joy with selling our house we decided to rent it out to our local hospital and have a good deal. However......we had to agree to be out by Aug 18th. This seemed ok as we have been planning to be in Oz by early Autumn so thought we could go into temp accomodation. Unfortunately because we haven't sold we don't have much cash so need to have jobs secured before we book the flights. this is taking longer than expected so now we need more than holiday let but have been completely jinxed in getting a 6 month let. Every time I think I have one sorted something happens to make it fall through. We have to move out a week on Monday. I can't be homeless with 2 girls to look after

I've seen one today that might do so am sciving off work in the morning to see if I can get it secured (hope my boss isn't reading this!!!)
OH has an interview for a job in Perth on Monday so keep your fingers crossed for us.

Sorry, not meaning to bore you all to death but needed to let off steam.

Oh i really feel for you. I am in a simular position but luckly my half sister has a caravan in Wales we can use until we fly to OZ. I am also ripping my hair out. Selling would be great but it looks like renting for us. Good luck with your plans and i really mean that and fingers crossed for OH interview.

Stay positive it will all fall into place. XX

Thanks Karen- a caravan in Wales is ideal. Good Luck with yours too
