Creating a Buying Plan
will also help ensure that you find the home you want, quickly.
There are many reasons why selling your current home before buying another one may be a good idea. But, once you have made that decision, you may still worry that you won’t find another home to buy after you sell.
Fortunately, there is plenty you can do to minimize that possibility.
For example, if you sell first, you will know exactly how much you’ll be able to put towards a new home. Having that specific number in your back pocket will enable you to target your search and jump on buying opportunities right away. When you see a home you like, you will not have to wonder, “Can we afford it?”
Ideally, it should have a shortlist of neighbourhoods or areas you are considering. Narrowing your search in that way increases the likelihood of finding a “right fit” home. You should also create a profile of the kind of home you are looking for — type, number of bedrooms, etc. — as well as the features you need, such as a spacious kitchen.
Being open-minded about the homes you see is also crucial. If the “perfect” home isn’t coming up in the listings, be flexible. Often, a less-than-perfect home can become a dream home with just a few improvements.
So, replace worry with planning and action. Then, once you sell, the home you want will be out there – and you will find it!
