FAQ
Good questions to ask
Can I buy before I sell my current home?
Yes, it may be possible! The best approach depends on your finances and whether you need the equity from your current home for your next purchase. Options may include qualifying to carry both homes, exploring bridge financing with a lender, or making an offer contingent on selling your current home. We'll work with your lender to compare the costs, timing, and risks so you can choose an approach that fits your situation.
How long does the process take?
The timeline depends on your goals, the local market, and whether you're buying, selling, or both. Finding the right home or buyer can take time. Once a contract is signed, your closing date will depend on financing, inspections, title work, and the agreed terms. We'll create a realistic timeline together, and I'll keep you informed at each step.
How will you market my home?
Your home deserves a marketing plan built around its strengths. We'll discuss pricing, preparing your home, and presenting it to potential buyers. Depending on the plan we agree on, marketing may include professional photography, online listing exposure, social media, agent outreach, and open houses. I'll keep you informed about buyer feedback and activity so we can make thoughtful adjustments along the way.
