For homeowners aiming to
sell their home
and
buy another,
it's the
classic real estate,
which came first, the chicken or
the egg, question - buy or sell
first?
If you sell first, you may find yourself under
a tight deadline to find another house, or be forced in temporary
quarters. If you buy first, you may be saddled with two mortgage
payments for at least a couple months. You may need the money from
the sale of your original home in order to pre-qualify for a loan
for your new home. You may be facing a job relocation and need to
sell quickly.
There are many variables involved; there is no universal correct
answer. It basically comes down to your specific circumstances.
If you already own a home, you’re probably struggling with this
basic question: what do I do first, buy the home that I want or sell
my existing home? And the answer is as individual as you are.
Generally, most real estate professionals would advise you to list
your present home and shop for your new home simultaneously.
However, depending on the market and/or your individual needs, you
may want to consider an alternative.
In a very robust real estate
market, a home could sell within a few days of listing. So if you
have very specific criteria for your new home with regard to
location, size, views, age, etc., in a competitive market you may
want to begin searching for and buying that home first before you
sell your existing home. As your Real Estate Sales Associate I will
discuss with you fully your individual needs and circumstances to
help you find the right solution. My neighborhood knowledge can work
for you.
