We have the opportunity to buy a neighbouring house through a private sale. We would be selling ours through an estate agent. What should we tell the estate agent about the private sale? I am worried that if we tell the agent that we are buying a house privately they might approach the people we are buying from and talk them into selling through them. Or am I being paranoid?! Also, we would want any buyers of ours to know that we are not moving far as we will be close neighbours going forward - Don't want to lean over the back fence after they moved in and go 'Ta dah! You bought the house from us!'. Also, it might keep things more civil during the selling process...! Do I just approach any buyers directly after they've put in an offer? Has anyone any advice?
