We Really Need Some Advice!!! Visa Application Gone In January Decided To Put House Up For Sale In February... On Sale 1 Week And Our Auctionneer Was Moving Along Nicely With The Latest Bid At 382,000 Euro. Neighbour Of Ours Put In A Very Desirable Bid Today - 400,000 Private Sale (no Auctionneers Fees Of 5,000 Euro) + They'll Give Me 9,000 Euro For My Car!!!!!!! But...... No Visa's Yet... Our Auctionneer Knew The Score And He Said He Would Prolong The Signing Of The Contracts As Long As Needed... But Private Buyers Want To Be In In Approx 3 Months So Basically They Want Us To Sign And Say Yes They Can Have The House - Which Only Brings Us Up To May!!!
What Shall We Do....... Please Help... Two Really Stressed Out Dubs!

I think you need to consider things like what visa your going for and how likely you are to actually get the visa, if your confident i would take the money and run as you never really know what the housing market is going to do and this does sound like a good offer. We haven't put our house on the market yet and we should have our visa in march. We are hoping to leave for the Gold Coast in July so if we were in your position we would bite his arm off.
Hope this helps.

Could you sell and rent somewhere until your visa comes through? What type of visa is it? Is there a chance that you won't get a visa and be left homeless???

Take the money and rent until you get the visa's would be what i would do...do you realistically think you would get anymore for the house?

we are going for a skilled independent visa - hubby a brickie.
our families will put us up no probs that end...and we walk away with about 170,000 after paying mortgage and loans off... problem is always chance of not getting visa!!! think this applies to us all ... don't know whether to take the risk and go for it!

I say SELL SELL SELL, you will get your visa and the last thing you need at the end of the day is to still have your house on the market when it comes to going to Oz, one less worry one your mind.
