Worried about buying and selling at the same time?

Buying AND selling may seem impossible, but it CAN be done! Our REALTORS® have the expertise, experience as well as the tools and resources to make the sell/buy process as smooth and seamless as possible. If you’re worried about buying and selling at the same time, hear from some of our recent sell/buy clients who prove that buying and selling IS possible.

Don’t know where you would go if your home sells before you find a new home?

There are several ways to protect yourself to be sure that you can live in your home until you find the house you want.

Below is a list of methods:

Disclosing in MLS – You can put a disclosure in MLS that says, “Sale Is Subject to Seller Finding Suitable Housing”. This means just what it says; the seller will not go through with the sale until they find what they want. This was frowned upon by buyers years ago but now it is much more accepted due to the low inventory that we saw over the past few years. If a deal was made under these terms, this language would also make its way into the Purchase and Sales agreement.

Delayed Closing Date – Another method that gives the seller plenty of time to find a new home is to make the closing date as far out as possible. Sometimes buyers and sellers will agree to as much as a 4-month close. The normal timeframe is more like 2-3 months, but if a seller really needs the time to find what they want and the buyer is willing to wait, then there is nothing stopping anyone from agreeing to a longer timeframe.

Rent Back – This method has become more and more popular over the last two years. It is used when a seller actually needs to sell before they can qualify to buy. In that case, the buyer and seller would close on the home, so the seller can get their money, but the seller would stay in the home as long as they need until they find the house they want. The sellers then pay the new owner’s rent, or the fees are deducted from the sale price, for a previously determined amount of time.

There are additional methods which can be used when a buyer and seller make a deal- they can be as creative as they want and need to be. If both parties are flexible and work together it makes things a lot easier for sales to happen..

Not Finding the Home You Want?

Scared that you’re looking everywhere and can’t find the home you want? Guess what? You aren’t looking everywhere! Most search for homes on Zillow. Trulia and Realtor.com but those sites are not always the most reliable or up to date. There are better ways to look for homes and us Realtors have access the abundance of homes you won’t find online. At Lamacchia Realty we have a huge database that consists of the largest amount of off market properties than anyone else. We have a system called LamacchiaLinks that was made to match buyers and sellers together all while doing so off-market.

Can we sell your home without Listing it?

Yes, we CAN sell your home without listing it! LamacchiaLinks is a proprietary database that helps do just that – sell your home off-market. This database confidentially houses all buyer criteria and public records of seller’s properties, matching buyers with homes that fit their criteria. This benefits their buyers who are looking for homes, and the latter; when clients are looking to sell, as many prefer to sell without listing. This creates matches between our buyers and sellers making it possible to have a transaction happen without ever having to list your home.

Worried about having to move twice?

Many are worried they will have to move twice because they won’t find the home they want to buy. You don’t need to nor shouldn’t need to worry about that. There are certain protections we put into contracts and MLS to ensure you secure another property.

Testimonials

“Our house/yard was getting too small as our family grew. We were afraid to move because we didn’t have enough money for a down payment on a house that would be good for us. We also didn’t want to end up selling with no place to go while we looked for our next home. After our conversation with Darlene, it was a no brainer. We were going to profit over $150k on our sale which gave us plenty for a down payment on a property we loved. I have to admit, I didn’t fully believe her until offers on our home started to roll in. Luckily, it took us no time to find a new home, but we had to make an absolute leap of faith. It was also the absolute best decision we’ve ever made for our family. Darlene knew given some of our circumstances, we were going to be without a home for a period of time after the sale and before we closed on our new home. She worked tirelessly for us because she knew we had kids and dogs and needed the stability of a home as quickly as possible. However, she didn’t rush us to purchase, and even discouraged us from a couple of properties that we felt like we HAD to bid on because of our situation. She didn’t let us fall into the pressure we felt. We remained patient, as Darlene advised us to do. It was the best advice. We love our new home and property. We put our faith in an absolute stranger and now Darlene has become a friend. It is evident that Darlene is not in real estate to make a living or a sale, she is in this business because she has a passion for homes and she truly wants to help people achieve the lives they dream of. She honestly made the possibility of owning our dream home come true. We’ve used Lamacchia Realty for several other purchases and sales in the past, some occurring at the same time. Every time we do business with Lamacchia Realty, our lives have improved drastically, and that statement couldn’t be truer.”

“We used Lamacchia Realty to sell our home so we could upsize to a new home in our current town that could accommodate our growing family. The real estate market in our town is very competitive and typically has less than a dozen single family homes on the market at a given time. We knew we hired the right brokerage to market our home and get us the most money in our pocket but admittedly, we were worried about purchasing at the same time and how we would manage all the moving parts. We knew we needed to be aggressive with our offers to compete in the market we were purchasing. Lamacchia Realty made sure to guide us through every aspect of buying and selling a home at the same time and made sure we were never overwhelmed. They were right there to guide us in the right direction for hiring an industry leading mortgage broker to ensure that our financing was solid- which was important because we were competing against investors, cash buyers, and developers. They also provided great resources to us, so we could hire an exceptional real estate attorney. Our agent was able to give us great advice for submitting competitive offers and for helping us win a bidding war between several buyers. From marketing our home for sale, to getting us top dollar for our home, to helping us buy the home of our dreams, Lamacchia Realty was right there with us every step of the way to make it all possible. Their service and expertise are unparalleled.”
