rebrol Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Yep agree with everyone - move in with the parents. We sold our house last year and had to move in with my Grandad for 4 and half months. Sold in April and didn't get our visa until July, but it allowed us to save some extra cash and my girls got to spend valuable time with G Grandad before we set off in August! Have you spoken to your agent re your referred meds? They should be able to put your mind at rest ish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rebecca78 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I'd agree, move in with someone. You don't want to fork out on more removals costs than you have to. We are the opposite...got our visas but not sold the house yet! Well done on selling yours so quickly! We thought we had but it fell through :witch-unhappy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoola Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Wow, that's fantastic news! And gives you some valuable time with family. Any tips on selling your house in a week?! We're just trying to decide whether to rent or try to sell. No visa yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynecaz Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 I think we were just very lucky . 5 houses all went up the same week , i thought there is no chance it will sell now but it did . We painted everywhere did all the jobs that needed doing but most of all de-clutted the house we had nothing out on show . Ask one of your close friends ( one that will tell you thr truth) .to come round and pretent they are the buyers and they can tell you what they dont like about your house ....... Its worth a go !!! lol .xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoola Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Hi Carolyn Thanks for the advice. I think decluttering is the answer... Could take some time in our house! Will be inviting my very honest sister in law round in a few weeks time to check it out! Anyway, good luck with everything. Hope your visa comes soon.
