Overcoming the Dilemma: Buy or Sell First? Effective Strategies for Homeowners

Strategies for homeowners facing the buy or sell first dilemma.

Are you eager to move into your dream home, but hesitant to put your current house on the market without securing your next property? You're not alone. Many homeowners face this common challenge and find themselves feeling stuck in the home-buying process. Today, we'll explore three effective strategies to help you navigate this situation and make your real estate journey smoother.

1. The reverse contingency. One option we offer is the reverse contingency approach. Here's how it works: We list your house for sale and inform potential buyers that your acceptance of their offer is subject to finding a satisfactory property within a specific timeframe, like 14, 21, or 30 days. This way, you gain some breathing room to find your next home without rushing into a decision.

2. Delayed closing and possession. Sometimes, all you need is more time. Instead of sticking to the standard 30-day closing period, we can extend it to 60 or 90 days. This delay in closing and possession gives you the flexibility to explore the market and find a home that truly meets your needs, without the pressure of immediate deadlines.

3. The One Move Program. Our exclusive One Move Program is designed to turn you into a cash buyer for your next property, empowering you to make a strong offer without the contingency of selling your current home first. This program provides ample time to secure your new home and later sell your existing property, offering a seamless and stress-free transition.
