You’re thinking 💨 of selling your home, but you’re hesitant to sell because you’re afraid you’re not going to find a home in time. I totally get it, it’s a stressful situation, and one that could make you lose sleep 😴 over it. Hi, I’m Natasha Carroll with Natasha Carroll Realty. This topic has come up many times so I wanted to address it. I understand that the home buying and selling process can be stressful, especially when you have to do both, sell a home and buy a home. Things can get complicated if your closing don’t align, or it takes longer to sell or buy a house than anticipated. So what happens when you sell your home and you have not found your new home yet ❓Well, you’re wondering where the heck you’re going to live❓ Well, here are a few options that you can consider to lower the stress level, okay❓
You can consider finding a home to rent. Renting a house for a bit will give you more time to look 👀 for that perfect home without feeling like you’ve actually settled, just because you feel you have to rush and pick a home. Another option is to do a rent back option. In this option, you complete the closing process with the buyer, and then both parties agree to let you stay in the house while you rent the home back from the new homeowner. This is a good option if the new owners are not in a hurry to move📦, but, it could be good because then you are in a stronger position when it’s time for you to purchase your new home. Another option is to ask the buyer to extend their escrow, meaning, you ask the buyers if they’re willing to push back the closing date to give you a little bit more time⏰. You can also consider unlisted properties or off-market properties as well. Bottom line is, that there are options. My team and I can explain these options in more detail and help guide you through the entire process. There are a few more strategies that are available that we could discuss to help you bridge the gap. I would be more than happy to walk you through all the options and to help you find the best solution that will work for you and your family. I’m Natasha Carroll here with Natasha Carroll Realty. As always, have an awesome home buying and selling day.
