Buying and Selling at the Same Time? You’re Not Alone
Whether you are scaling up or downsizing, you are not just handling one real estate transaction. You are managing two at once. For most people, this juggling act is overwhelming and rarely goes as smoothly as expected.
The Real Problem Is Not What You Think
Many people I speak with assume the challenge is a lack of listings, high prices, or that it is simply a bad time to move. In reality, these are just symptoms. The real issue is that no one has shown you how to move smart.
Three Shifts That Make All the Difference
1. Sequence Over Speed
Trying to buy and sell at the same time often leads to chaos. What you need is a clear sequence. For some, that means selling first with a flexible closing date. For others, it might involve securing a short-term rental or using financing options to buy before you sell.
2. Financing Is More Than Mortgage Rates
Have you explored your home equity options? Spoken to a broker about bridge loans or a home equity line of credit? The right financial strategy can make all the difference. At the time of writing, there are still concerns around tariffs, new trade agreements, and interprovincial trade barriers, so having a flexible plan is more important than ever.
3. Clarity Equals Confidence
If you are unsure about what you want in your next home, it will be hard to recognize the right fit when you find it. My workbook is designed to help you define your “right size” and make decisions with confidence.
