Hi we are buying a new build house from Barratts and have just exchanged contracts. At the moment the estimated date for it to be ready is the beginning of May. As we have to give our notice on our rent renewal date if we want to leave here middle of May time we will have to give notice at the end of March.
In an ideal world we would have a 1-2 week overlap between getting the keys on the new place and leaving here as we need to get the carpets laid, curtains or blinds in every room sorted and get all our stuff moved!
I don't really want to be paying rent on this place for ages unnecessarily but I'm really scared that we'll give our notice, the letting agent will find new tenants then there will be a last minute delay and we'll be homeless!
Does anyone have any experience? Thanks.
