Obstacle 04 · Change the move
Could a different sequence feel better?
If owning both homes would stretch you too far, the answer may be a different order of events. Start with what you need to know before you feel comfortable selling.
Sell with a plan for the next home.Explore a suitable housing provision with your agent and attorney.Close the sale and stay temporarily.Explore agreed transition time after ownership changes.Could temporary financing change the cash flow?Understand what a different payment structure may—and may not—solve.
A few things matter.
- The buyer must accept negotiated sale and occupancy terms.
- Temporary housing, storage or a second move may add cost and disruption.
- Plan where you will go if the next home is delayed.
Choose the move you can live with.
Your agent guides the market and negotiations, your attorney advises on agreements, and Tony connects the financing to the sequence.
