Your Motivation to sell

First let’s talk about why you are selling and what you plan on doing once you sell your property. The most important thing you need to do before you put your Western New York home is clearly define your plans for the future.

Are you going to purchase another home? Are you up-sizing or downsizing? Are you staying in the area or relocating to someplace new? Do you have a new home identified? Probably the most over looked thing a seller forgets to do when getting ready to sell is checking to make sure that they can purchase another property.

Some important financial questions you should ask yourself before you put your Western New York home up for sale are:

  • Can I qualify for Mortgage for my desired next home?
  • Is my credit in order?
  • Should I get pre-approved for my purchase before selling my home?
