Homes that sold in July had a median of just 8 days on market.
KEY TIPS FOR BUYING OR SELLING IN TODAY’S MARKET
One question that came up during our recent Home Seller Workshop in July was, "How do I buy a home and sell my current home at the same time?"
The answer is that there isn't one "right" way to approach it. Every situation is different, and the best strategy depends on your financial position, your timeline, and the current market.
Some homeowners choose to sell first before beginning their home search. Others purchase before selling, use a home sale contingency, negotiate a delayed closing or post-closing occupancy agreement, or explore bridge financing. Each option has advantages and tradeoffs.
The biggest mistake we see is waiting until you've found the perfect home to start thinking through the logistics. Having a plan in place before you list your home or begin touring properties gives you more flexibility and allows you to make decisions with confidence when opportunities arise.
If buying and selling at the same time is something you're considering, we'd be happy to talk through your goals and help you understand which options may be the best fit for your situation.
