I am selling my home and due to move in a few weeks. The property we are moving into is empty, but there is a family due to move to our house a few days after we leave and they have said that they can’t stay longer where they are now.
Our solicitor has been unwell, and we haven’t been able to get hold of anyone to check if we can still go ahead. It may still be possible for you to complete your house move in the circumstances you describe.The Scottish Government says that homebuyers should, where possible, work with all households involved in a move (or chain of moves) to delay for as long as stay-at-home measures are in place.
