Trade-In
Buy your next home before you sell this one.
Make a non-contingent offer on your next house, move in on your timeline, then sell your current home for what it’s actually worth — without the chaos of doing both at once.
Why the Trade-In wins
BENEFIT 01
Make an offer that wins.
Skip the contingencies. Our partner makes a non-contingent cash-style offer on the home you want — the kind of offer sellers actually accept in a competitive market.
BENEFIT 02
Move once. Pay one mortgage.
Move into your new home before your current one sells. No double payments. No two-stage move. No rushed transition between houses.
BENEFIT 03
Sell on your timeline, for what it’s actually worth.
With you already settled in your new place, we can stage your old home, market it properly, and choose the right offer — instead of taking the first one because you need to close fast.

Find your next home
We work with you to find the right next house — on your timeline, in your area, at your price.

Make a strong offer
Our partner makes a non-contingent cash-style offer on your behalf. Sellers love these. You get the house.
04
Move in before you sell
Close on the new home, move your family and belongings in, settle. Your current home stays yours, ready for the next step.
05
Sell your current home, the right way
Now we list your old home properly. Stage it. Market it. Choose the right offer instead of the fastest one.

What you should know.
What you gain.
- An offer sellers actually accept
- One move instead of two
- Time to sell your old home for what it’s worth
What you should know.
- There’s a fee for the convenience — typically a percentage of your old home’s sale price
- Rent accrues on the new home until your old one sells (no out-of-pocket payments, but it comes off the back end)
- Your old home still needs to sell — we work hard to make it happen, but the process takes time

Frequently asked
Frequently asked.
Does my home qualify?
Most homes qualify. Properties priced between $350,000 and $3,000,000 work within our standard program — outside that range, we can usually structure something custom.
How long do I have to sell my old home after I move?
There's no hard deadline. We work to sell quickly, but the goal is selling for what your home is worth — not selling fast just to hit a date. Rent accrues during this window, so most clients sell within a few months.
What does the fee actually cost?
It varies by partner and property, but it's typically a percentage of your old home's sale price. We walk through the exact numbers for your situation during the consultation — no surprises at closing.
What if my old home doesn’t sell at the price I want?
We work with you on pricing strategy from the start to make sure that doesn’t happen. If the market shifts or we’re getting low offers, we’ll talk through options. The goal is your equity, not just any sale.
Can I use this if I don’t have to sell my current home?
Yes. The same partner offers a separate program for buyers who just want a stronger non-contingent offer. Different mechanics, similar advantage. Ask us about it during the consultation.
