Or (like everybody else without the first owned house) sell the house, rent while buying another, then move from rented to owned house. A friend even had to spend a few weeks in a hotel (of a kind) with the family, while waiting for the house.

Well too fucking bad. You don't get government handouts to make it easier for you to relocate to your 2nd home.
