    Should You Buy or Sell First?

    A key decision when coordinating a move. Here's how to think about it.

    Whether to buy or sell first depends on your financial situation, the local market, and your risk tolerance.

    Selling first gives you certainty about your proceeds, but you may need temporary housing if you haven't secured your next home.

    Buying first lets you move directly, but carries the risk of carrying two mortgages if your current home doesn't sell quickly.

    Market conditions influence the decision. In a seller's market, selling first may be safer; in a buyer's market, buying first may be feasible.

    Jerry helps clients weigh these factors and choose the sequence that fits their situation.
