We can’t buy and sell at the same time.”
Five move-up buyers have said this to me in the last month. With rates back over 7%, I get it.
But here’s what’s actually happening in Johns Creek:
→ 7 of my last 9 move-up clients sold and bought in the same window
→ Well-priced homes are still at a median of 12 days on market
You don’t have to sell first, rent, and move twice. You need three things in order:
Your Real Net: what you actually walk away with, not your Zestimate
The Bridge Plan: how your equity gets from this house to the next one
The Occupancy Cushion: yes, you can sell your house and still be living in it
Screenshot the checklist at the end, and save this for when you’re ready.
Thinking about moving up in Johns Creek? Send me a message and I’ll run your real net.
