  • Generally the entire chain completes at the same time as everyone needs the money from their sale and no-one wants to end up with two houses (or none). Sometimes someone will break the chain by moving into rented accommodation or similar (in my case I was at the top of a chain with about half a dozen sales but it was actually the parents buying my place for their children so although they had to sell theirs along with the rest of the chain mine didn't need to complete on the same day).

  • @aggi suppose if you bought without selling you'd have the 2nd home stamp duty to sell too?
    Makes sense. I am trying to find that out but suspect it is quite long

  • if you bought without selling you'd have the 2nd home stamp duty to sell too?

    There's a window that allows for this, maybe 6 months?
