My husband and I are currently selling our first home, and while our experience as first-time buyers six years ago was admittedly stressful and expensive, I’ve quickly realised that buying and selling is a whole different ball game. From stamp duty to countless fees and the deposit itself, it all adds up. But one of the highest costs I didn’t anticipate? The actual moving day.
During this whole process, we’ve done everything we can to sell our house fast, and we’re slowly but surely making our way through the moving home checklist. However, I’ve hit a roadblock with moving from one house to the next, as hiring a removals company or even renting a van to do it ourselves is pricier than I could have ever anticipated.
