I had a call from a vendor today who asked me "Can I sell and rent back my house till I emigrate next year"
He had plans to emigrate to America next year however wanted to deal with the sale of his property now so he could rest assured it was sold and he could definitely move when he wanted to next year. He didnt want to put it on the market as with house prices and sales dropping he did not feel confident in this option even with a year to spare. So he decided that the sell and rent back option would work for him.
He was made an offer on his property which he was more than pleased with. I have sent him out a copy of this offer in the post for him to read and sign and then we shall start the proceedings of buying his house which he can rent back till his move next year.
