Re: Anybody booked 1 way flights without house sold?

I have. House been on market for about a month. No viewings at all. If it does not sell I don't need to worry. Fortunately I am in a lucky position...feel it for those who need to sell.

Re: What would you do?

You are still young and if you want to do it then just go for it.
