If the right home comes along at the less-than-right time, there is an option to make an offer contingent upon selling your home. It is a serious contingency and the seller of your dream home may have hesitations as they would have to wait until you sell your home and that can take months. Consider listing your home at a fair market value. An experienced realtor can, with certain confidence estimate a listing price at which you can expect to go under contract within a reasonable time frame. Parallel to selling your home and negotiating offers, look for a house you’d like to call home.
