Selling first means renting and moving twice (we add βΉ1.5 L for two moves + deposit interest). Buying first means a bridge loan on your take-home until your flat sells.
Which order should you do it in?
Sell first, then buy
β
- No bridge loan needed
- Rent for 2β4 months in between
- Stronger position as a cash buyer
- Risk: prices may rise while you search
Buy first, then sell
β
- No rental, move only once
- Need bridge loan or savings for the overlap
- Risk: your flat may take longer to sell
- More money tied up during the overlap
