Is it best to find a home before listing or list and then
find a home once it sells?
There is the chance that if you sell your house
first, you might not be able to find anything, or you find something and lose
it because your house doesn’t sell in time. To prepare yourself in the best
possible way you may want to do some research by viewing some homes that appeal
to you. Choose a Realtor that is well-informed about the area and knows what these homes are worth. This will help you avoid overpaying for a property and reassure you that there are many lovely homes available and that one or
several of the current listings may work for you.
Should I find a home before I list my Nanaimo home?
A
Realtor can supply you with a CMA (Comparative market analysis) which will help
determine the market value of your home. Ask your realtor to do a
room-by-room walkthrough, and make recommendations on ways to stage or
declutter your home so it shows at its best. This is also the time to
make any repairs necessary to get your house sold. Get your finance in order
for your next purchase. The mortgage
market has seen some big changes over the past 6 months. Its important to know what you will be
approved for at the new rates and with the new requirements. Doing
your up-front research will pay off as you will be in a position to get your home listed quickly when
you are ready, or when the right house comes onto the market.
