It’s one of the most common questions I get: “Tamera, should I sell my home before I buy my next one?”
The truth is — it depends on your financial comfort, timeline, and how flexible you can be.
If you sell first, you’ll know exactly how much you can spend on your next home, and your offer will look stronger to sellers. The downside? You might need temporary housing or rent-back options while you search.
If you buy first, you can move once — but you’ll carry two mortgages for a short time or need a bridge loan.
👉 Tamera’s Tip: In our Northern Colorado market, well-priced homes are still selling quickly. For many homeowners, listing first (with flexible post-closing occupancy) gives the smoothest transition.
Every situation is different, and that’s why I walk my clients through the pros and cons before listing or buying.
