Should I Sell My Home First or Buy the Next One First?

Welcome back! Now is the time that most people are thinking about moving. The question then is how do you get from your current house to your new house. Do you sell first or do you buy first?

You have a few different options. If you want to purchase before selling, one of those options is a contingent offer. A contingent offer tells the seller you will purchase their home as long as your home sells. Now, as you can imagine, sellers aren't always excited about this.

Sellers will be less likely to negotiate on price with contingent offers. They also will want to continue to market their home. What if you find another home you like? You're locked in to that contingent offer.

When it comes to buying and selling, it's important that you work with an experienced agent who can help you explore all the options and find which one is best for you. Give me a call today and let's talk about your next real estate move!
