How Selling and Buying at the Same Time Works
1. Clarify your numbers and timeline: We start by reviewing your current home, your equity, and your budget for the next home, then talk through your ideal timing so your plan is realistic for the Canby and South Clackamas County market.
2. Prepare and price your current home: Jennifer helps move‑up sellers decide what to fix, what to stage, and how to price based on local data so your home shows well and supports your next purchase.
3. Choose your move‑up strategy: Together we decide whether to sell first, buy first, or try to coordinate closings, and we discuss options like rent‑backs or flexible closing dates to reduce stress.
4. Market your home and search for the next one: While your current home is being actively marketed, we also search for your next home in Canby, South Clackamas County, and the North Willamette Valley so you can compare options confidently.
5. Negotiate both transactions: Jennifer manages communication and negotiation on both sides (offers on your current home and offers you make on your next home) so terms, dates, and contingencies line up as smoothly as possible.
6. Coordinate closing and moving: Once both homes are under contract, we work closely with all parties and your lender to coordinate inspections, appraisals, signings, and move‑out/move‑in so you know exactly what happens when.
