The next step was to get our current house ready for sale, there was plenty to do. After discussing the proposed sale of our house with more experienced at preparing houses for sale we realized that there was a huge task ahead of us.
We needed to finish the kitchen as well as paint 5 rooms. We also removed 4 cubic meters of rubbish out of the place. Other jobs included replacing the guttering and re pointing the roof cap tiles and re plastering the foundations.
With all this done the current house is on the market, it didn't happen over night this part of the journey took about 3 months. It was a bit of a whirl wind and not something I want to experience again in a while.
One thing that we discussed was timing of buying the block originally we wanted to sell our house and then buy the block but alas we found the block first. Any way I hope this doesn't back fire, we already have a buyer coming to look at the house and it hasn't been listed yet.
More on this to come, the next thing we need to look out for is some where to live while we build.
Thursday and we will know about the sale of the house. Ill keep you posted
