In most cases, a buyer will officially take control of your property once the final payment is made. This will be a disadvantage to you especially if you did not have an alternative place to stay. The buyer might force you out of the house so that to start repairing the house. Therefore, ensure that you get another place for you to live as you wait for the buyer to make the final payments.<\/p><h4><strong>We Buy Houses Christchurch as-is, where-is!<\/strong><\/h4>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Selling Your Earthquake Damaged House Get Your Free Property Assessment Tell us about your property \u2014 it takes about 2 minutes.
