Need to Sell Your Home in Rhode Island Before You Buy the Next One? I’m Here to Help.
Need to Sell Your Home in Rhode Island Before You Buy the Next One? I’m Here to Help.
If you're a homeowner in Cumberland, Cranston, Johnston, Smithfield, Lincoln, West Warwick, or Warwick, and you're thinking about moving—but need to sell your current home first—you're not alone. This is one of the most common situations I help Rhode Island homeowners navigate. And let’s be honest: trying to time two big moves (and transactions) at once can feel overwhelming. That’s where I come in.
Why Sell First Before Buying?
Most homeowners don’t have the option to buy their next home without selling their current one. Your equity is likely tied up in your existing house, and your debt-to-income ratio might not support holding two mortgages. But even if it’s necessary, the process doesn’t have to be stressful—if you have the right plan in place.
My Proven Process for Sellers Who Need to Buy
As a top-ranked Rhode Island real estate agent with extensive experience in contingent sales and coordinated closings, I specialize in helping sellers list their current home and find their next one—without leaving you in limbo or without a roof over your head.
Here’s how we make it work:
- Step 1: Property Evaluation & Market Prep
We’ll walk through your home in Cumberland, Cranston, Johnston, or wherever you’re located, and determine what it’s worth in today’s market. I’ll help you get it show-ready fast, without spending money you don’t need to. - Step 2: Aggressive Listing Strategy
With professional marketing, pricing, and timing, we’ll attract strong buyers quickly—ideally ones willing to work with your timeline or accept a contingency to find suitable housing. - Step 3: House Hunt While We List
While your home hits the market, I’ll get you pre-approved and actively searching for your next dream home in towns like Smithfield, Lincoln, Warwick, or wherever life’s taking you next. - Step 4: Negotiate Contingencies and Flexible Timelines
Whether it's a rent-back agreement, extended closing, or a purchase contingent on your sale, I negotiate every detail to keep your transition smooth.
