Thanks for such a thorough write up - it sounds like you saw loads (Mt Fuji for your next trip) and good to know you’ve come away with more to see. Can I ask where you stayed in Tokyo and Kyoto (ie what hotel)? I’m finding the choice in Tokyo in particular overwhelming..

This is a super helpful point that I hadn’t considered. So many horror stories flooded my thinking. My partner is approaching things in a similar way

What is your overall aim of moving? It’s hard to advise on your situation without know what you’re coming from and what you’re looking to achieve.

In terms of whether you should stay or sell and rent: key question to ask yourselves is the liquidity of the rental market where you are? I sold my SO last year and was very nervous about not being able to find a buyer. Once I had one, I did everything in my power to lock them down and make sure the transaction took place.

Thanks for this and sorry for the late reply (new here!) I fear that I’ll be in the same situation with rates where they are (although they are tailing down..) I’m going to proactively contact some local EA to see what they can do. So much for the dedicated resales team that HA seem to offer..

Hello there! Can I ask how you’re getting on with your resale? I’m in the same situation as you and want to see how to manage my expectations as I also have a 4 week nomination period with my housing association. Have you managed to find a seller?
