Had an offer accepted on a nice 2 bed flat in Palmers Green, we're first time buyers so its all very daunting but slowly getting through it all. Got a solicitor and mortgage advisor appointed and now going for the mortgage offer after getting one in principal. Whats worrying us now is that in an ideal world we'd like to be in the new place by the end of October (as that's when our current tenancy in Arnos Grove ends) but starting to come to terms with it being highly unlikely as the sellers haven't even looked at anywhere to buy yet, said they will be going around some over the bank holiday weekend.
Need to look into some temporary accommodation and storage options as I really doubt our landlord/EA will allow us to go on a rolling contract/tenancy once this one expires and we don't have friends or family we can lean on really. Anyone had any experience of this and have any recommendations of where to start looking etc?
