Redundancy Please let someone buy my house

[SGKG102]

Hi all,

More doom and gloom I am afraid. Just as I thought things couldn't get any worse I am now being made redundant. Flippin Heck what else can go wrong If someone would just buy my house I would be the happiest person on this planet

I can't believe it here I am sitting with my visa in hand and can't go anywhere its sooooooo frustrating I just want to SCREAM Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Regards

Karen

Think of it as a clean break with a job that you were about to give up anyway

My husband was just put in a long unpaid leave here in Oz. He'd already started up his own gardening business so now he has more time to get that going and he's up to 2 days a week, the website has been done and the business cards printed.

Things will get better. Scream if you need to - let out the frustration and focus on what your life will be like when you are over here. Possibly sipping chilled white wine and laughing about the stuff you had to go through to get over here and how it was all worth it!

Regards,
Karen

Im starting to feel the same, the pressure to sell the house is unbelieveable, i have not got my visa in hand yet so i can only imagine how you must feel. Im still finishing renovating the house, havent even got it on the market and with the radio predicting the housing market doom and gloom im starting to get worried.

But the thing that pushes me on with everything is actually that thought, sitting with a glass of wine relaxing with the sun on my face and thinking about it being the best move i had ever made. No more DIY, traffic jams, just a laid back chilled life ahhhhh Roll on those times ...lol

I'm not looking forward to the pressure of waiting for a buyer! And it is def scary with how the housing marketing has been going. Just try to imagine lovely sunshine (I know it rains there too, but surely not as much as here!?!). Perhaps a nice sandy beach and a nice house....

I know how you all feel, I started the process in Feb and have had very few viewings on the house, we have reduced it, but I am not prepared to reduce it anymore. So again it is a waiting game..
I am seriously considering renting it but need to look into this more closely as I may have to pay tax on the money I earn as we will be permanent residents In Perth once we emigrate. I am going to Perth in Nov for a fact finding hol, so I will be seeking advice that I will gladly post..
Can't wait to go so excited to see what Oz is like...

When you do sell, where do you live until you fly?

I would be looking to rent the cheapest house possible as it will be very short term.. Or you could live with family, this would be an option if it was very short term, ie a month or so..

There's 5 of us so no room with family unfortunately. Another hurdle to face *sigh*

There were only 2 of us so we moved in with family for a month.
