Suitable Housing Provision
A negotiated provision in the sale agreement may give you an agreed period to find suitable replacement housing. It can help when you are willing to sell but fear having nowhere to go.
The sale can be tied to the housing search.
The protection depends on the agreed terms—not simply on calling it a suitable housing provision.
A few things matter.
- Your agent advises on buyer acceptance and the effect on marketability.
- Your attorney advises on the search period, your obligations and what happens if suitable housing is not found.
- Tony helps check how the financing for the next home fits the agreed sequence.
