Until very recently we had no intention of trading-up but have just seen our dream house (actually we have put a bid of 10% below asking which was rejected - the asking price is the bottom-line we were told). The EA selling this house thinks that we should at least have our house on the market for our bid to be taken seriously. Also we have had our own house valued by two local EAs who both concur that we should put our house up immediately (surprise surprise).
I am uncomfortable putting our house on the market without having sale agreed on the new house as we could easily be outbid if others are interested. How do you explain to neighbours that you are moving but don't have anything to move into yet?
If we don't successfully buy the dream house we could always take our house back off the market but then we will have lost about 800 or so on advertising fee's!
Any advice greatly appreciated
