Hi,
I am thinking of putting the apartment I live in on the market which is down the country so I can try to buy something in Dublin. I have absolutely no idea how the whole buying/selling houses works and I'm just wondering how the process works?
I suppose the first thing to do is have in place any mortgage finance that is needed before doing anything. Then obviously, put your residence on the market. Thing is, what happens if you get a buyer but haven't found the right property you want to move to? I guess this is a problem we all face, but as a rule, can you accept an offer and withdraw within a certain time period if you can't find a place to move to? Similarly, if you find a place you like, can you make an offer before you have a sale on your current residence?
Facile questions I know - obviously you have to find a buyer AND a place to buy. Just wondering, what people's experiences have been.
