Buying a home in Canada with US credit rating

[lampbreaker]

In the US, is it required by law to deliver vacancy by the seller immediately after the selling?

Once the deal is 'closed' the property belongs to the buyer. The seller and buyer can agree to let the seller rent it for some period after closing. This rent back must be included in the contract.

You can also store your stuff in relocubes I although they are smaller than trailers) for $150/month
Just to confirm, did you mention all your stuff in goods to follow list ?
You can bring what you declared earlier ( assuming you have done landing )

As of now, I haven't declared any of my items as I am not sure if I will be bringing them or not. FYI, I always have a choice to amend that document. BTW, relocubes won't work for me - They are too small for the amount of items I have.

The deal is closed when the title is transferred; until then, its merely a reserved item. Meaning, I (the seller) or my stuff do not have to move out. FYI, the house will be on market starting next week and therefore I am being proactive with my moving/renting options.

No you don't. Once GTA/GTF are submitted , those are done deal.
