Get the ball rolling
If you hope to sell your home and purchase a new one, the first step is to market your current property.
There are three main reasons why you should do this before you start searching for your dream home:
- You’ll put yourself in a stronger negotiating position. Aware of lagging completion times, many sellers are prioritising offers from buyers who are ready to move.
- If you’ve accepted an offer on your property, you’ll know exactly where you stand regarding budget.
- You won’t be tempted to accept a lower offer because you’re desperate to hurry the sale along so you don’t miss out on your dream property.
