Jack Bauer Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Hi guys Is the house buying process much more straight forward over there? If you aren't buying with a mortgage can you be in within a few weeks does anyone think? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 We made an offer on our house and moved in 10 weeks later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatpack Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 It can be done in 3 weeks. The process is far better than the UK, once your offer is accepted unconditionally, that's it no one else can offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Bauer Posted June 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Wow, really? What was the hold up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verystormy Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 We bought land and from offer accepted which was about two days from making the offer, we had completion in about 2 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laz Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 As long as the seller is prepared to move out in a few weeks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Wow, really? What was the hold up? No hold up for us - we'd already paid for 12 weeks rental, after 2 weeks we put in an offer, had a termite inspection done, took the keys the last week of our short term rental - furniture released from Fremantle docks and we moved in. I'm sure if we'd have pushed we'd have got in sooner but we didn't have any furniture here to move in with - so the delay was our choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Bauer Posted June 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Ah, ok. So we could do it quicker, cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newjez Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Ah, ok. So we could do it quicker, cheers I would say 4 weeks is normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
