When to Buy - When to Sell:

Unless you have considerable financial resources, it could be risky to put an offer on a new home before your first home sells. In fact, you might lose your chance to buy your new home if you cannot sell your first home in time or if you do not get the sales price you expected. You might even have to make payments on both homes until the first home sells.

  Selling a Home Takes Time: It might take longer than you expect to sell your first home. It can take several weeks just to get a home listed for sale. It might take another month or two to find a buyer. Then depending on the lending market and the results of home inspections it might take another month or two for the buyer to close the transaction. Remember: Sellers don’t want to wait for you to get your home sold!

Our job is to get you into the strongest negotiating position possible: As seasoned real estate agents, we handle at least 50 transactions each year.

Lastly, we will help you structure your offer so you are protected in case things don’t go as planned.

Let us help you find the most convenient and affordable solution to minimize the moving impact on your lifestyle.
