Should I buy first?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Should you sell your property before buying another, or vice versa? Both options have their advantages and disadvantages. By carefully weighing up the pros and cons, and planning for contingencies, you’ll be able to make an informed choice. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Sell first<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBy selling your property before you’ve found a new one, you’ll know exactly how much money you’ll receive at the end of the sale. This means you’ll know how much is available to buy your new home. Even if you feel an urgent need to find a new home, remember that selling first will give you all the information you need to make a solid promise to purchase. For example, by knowing when the buyers of your home will be moving in, you can determine when you want to take possession of your new property. If these dates don’t coincide, you can always opt for temporary accommodation. \n\n \t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

By buying first, you’ll know in advance your new address, the exact cost of your new home, when you’ll become its owner and when the transaction will take place. You can take these factors into account when you receive a promise to purchase your current property.
It’s also possible to make a promise to purchase conditional on the sale of your property. In this case, the owner of the property you are interested in may receive another promise to purchase with no conditions attached. In order to give you priority, he’ll ask you to withdraw your condition. You will then have the choice of buying this property before selling your own, or withdrawing your offer. <\/p>\n

In any case, it’s a good idea to plan for a temporary source of financing in case your current property doesn’t sell when you sign the purchase contract for your new one.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

To sell quickly, make a good impression<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Making a good impression is essential to attracting the interest of potential buyers.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The exterior of your property is very important. An attractive appearance encourages the buyer to visit the interior. Your lawn should be well groomed; in winter, have photos on hand to help visitors visualize how the yard will look in summer. Cleanliness is paramount: an uncluttered entrance and sparkling windows will also make all the difference. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Inside too, cleanliness is essential. Clean up and get rid of unnecessary objects. Remove old furniture that obstructs passageways or clutters up rooms. Clear the space so that visitors don’t feel cramped. <\/p>\n

Does the paint need refreshing? Repainted properties often sell for more. You should also know that dark colors don’t sell well. Instead, opt for light, bright tones. The condition of carpets can also be a determining factor. If you can’t replace them, clean them to give them a facelift. <\/p>\n

The kitchen and bathroom should be immaculate. Take the time to clean appliances and faucets, as well as the bathtub, toilet and sink. Clear the countertops and don’t leave dishes in the sink or towels on the edge of the bathtub. Let the buyer see all the storage possibilities. <\/p>\n

Throughout the house, repair leaky faucets, faulty handles, drawers and cupboard doors that don’t close properly, etc. Replace burnt-out light bulbs and yellowed electrical plates. These small repairs are relatively inexpensive and will have a positive influence on the buyer. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

It’s essential that your home is well lit. Open the curtains during the day and turn on the lamps in the evening. If necessary, add lamps in dark corners. Make sure the house is well ventilated. Don’t repel buyers with strong odors, such as incense or spicy foods. <\/p>\n

During the buyer’s visit, be discreet and leave your broker alone with the customer. This will make it easier for him to show off your home, and the customer will feel freer to give his comments. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
