Selling & Buying Simultaneously? Here’s How to Do It Right!

February 3, 2025

Buying a new home while selling your current one can feel like juggling two big tasks at once, but with the right plan, it’s absolutely manageable. Here’s how to tackle both sides of the transaction and make the process as smooth as possible.

Know Your Home’s Value
Start by understanding what your current home is worth. A professional home evaluation can provide an accurate estimate and help you plan your next steps. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us for a free valuation.

Get Pre-Approved
Pre-approval strengthens your offers and clarifies your buying power. It also allows you to act quickly when you find the right home. Check out this guide to learn why pre-approval is essential.

Stay Flexible and Organized
Create a timeline with key milestones for both selling and buying. If there’s a gap between selling your current home and buying your next one, options like rent-back agreements, longer closing, bridge loans, home equity lines of credit (HELOC), or temporary housing can help bridge the transition. Being prepared to adapt will help keep the process moving smoothly.

Regardless of where you are in the process, we are here to help! Reach out to discuss the best strategy for your unique situation.

What if life gets better the moment you decide to look for it? 💭

I’m a firm believer that gratitude changes the filter on your entire day. When we stop to ask, “Isn’t it wonderful?” we start noticing the small wins that lead to big breakthroughs, in our homes, our careers, and our relationships.

It’s a simple shift that changes everything.

Real estate can feel like a lonely business... but I promise you, it doesn’t have to be. ✨

When I look at this video, from our strategic mastermind sessions to giving back to the community we love, and yes, even kicking back at our beach retreat, I don’t just see “coworkers.” I see a tribe.

I’ve always believed that who you surround yourself with dictates your growth. At our brokerage, we believe in high-level collaboration over cut-throat competition. We believe in celebrating the wins, supporting each other through the tough transactions, and actually enjoying the ride.

If you’ve been feeling like you’re on an island in your business, consider this your invite to the mainland. 🏝️

Let me let you in on a little secret... 🤫

Everyone waits for spring. They wait for the flowers to bloom and the “For Sale” signs to pop up everywhere. But you know what else pops up in spring? Bidding wars. Stress. Over-asking offers.

Here is why winter is actually your Power Play:

Serious Sellers: If a house is on the market right now, there is a reason. These sellers are motivated, which means we have room to negotiate.

Zero Crowds: No elbowing through open houses. You have the breathing room to make a decision.

Leverage: Prices often soften, and homes sit a little longer. That puts the ball in your court.

Don’t wait to compete with the crowd. Let’s use the cold to get you a hot deal. 🔥

Send me a DM if you want to see what’s sitting on the market right now.

What your Zestimate isn’t telling! Have you ever looked at your Zestimate and thought, “Oh sweet! We’re rich!” 💰

Then your realtor comes and bursts your bubble?

You’re not a lone in that. But here’s the truth…

Zillow doesn’t know your homes value like your local realtor does.

I can give you an accurate valuation so you can know exactly what your house is worth in the current market.

📲 Reach out! I’m happy to discuss your real estate needs in 2026!

I just adore Oksana. Spending the evening in her beautiful home, sharing the most delicious dinner with her and her boys, was such a joy.

This incredible mama of four is doing truly amazing things. While her husband is in Ukraine caring for his mom, she continues to show up with so much strength, grace, and love.

Getting to help her move from a two-bedroom apartment into a 3,000+ square foot home was one of those moments that reminds me why I love what I do.
