Buying your next home first before selling your current home has become a very popular option for many home owners for a number of reasons.
For example:
You will move when you find the perfect home.
You don’t want to sell your home if you haven’t found anything to purchase.
You will only move if a home gets listed in a specific neighborhood.
You will move when you find the perfect house in your price range.
Whatever your reasons are, waiting for the perfect home and then finally finding it can be stress-free. Time is on your side and you are in control.
Now let’s say we have found you the perfect home that checks off all of your requirements and we are putting an offer together. One of the conditions in the offer will be Sale of Buyer Property.
This condition may state we have 30 days to sell your home to be able to firm up on the one you wish to purchase. The clock is ticking….ARE YOU READY TO SELL? This is where the importance of being ready to sell is invaluable.
Our recommendation.
Once you have decided to sell your home and begin looking for a new home, you should start preparing your current home to be listed.
Don’t wait until you find the perfect home to purchase before you begin tasks around the house that need to be completed.
Let’s repeat this recommendation (because it’s so important)!!!
Don’t sit idle at your home, get moving on those Honey Do Lists NOW so you are ‘List Ready’. We cannot stress the importance of this during these offer situations. Paint, declutter, update flooring whatever it is start working on them immediately.
You never know the current owners of your perfect home to-be could be doing the same thing and getting ‘List Ready’ as you’re reading this article.
Contact us any time for a complimentary in-home consultation on how to get your home ‘List Ready’.
