You’re feeling crammed in a home that once was perfect. Whether you’re having another baby, or an older child moving back home, or maybe even a parent or other family member joining the ranks. Or maybe just the living space is fine, but with your new normal, you’re both working from home and the kids need a space to do their online classes and homework.
I’m Sabrina Shaw with Homes By Sabrina with RE/Max T-town.
I have worked in Tulsa County and Creek County for years. Setting up work in a dining room or family room is just a hassle, and often these spaces have too many distractions. Over the last year, it has become apparent that you just need more space. A bigger house with a dedicated office, maybe even another flex room learning and earning space. The catch is, you’re not alone. Lots of people are in the same situation, looking for the same things, and inventory is low. Now it’s a great thing when it comes to selling your house, but what about finding a new one, that better meets your needs? Navigating a busy sellers market with low inventory, can be a real challenge. How do you coordinate selling and buying at the same time? Should you list first or find a new house first? I have been helping people sell and buy south of 121st in Bixby, Jenks, Kiefer, Mounds, Glenpool and Sapulpa for years. And I’ve helped many clients navigate successful transactions like this.
In the sellers market it is highly unlikely that sellers will accept any contingencies. Especially if your current home isn’t even listed yet. There are some great options for you as a seller though, and one is a seller lease back. This means you stay in the house after closing for a negotiated amount of time, so you can find and close on your new home. Another option is to extend the escrow period, meaning closing in 60 days instead of 30, to give you a little more time on your buying side. These ideas can also be helpful when strategizing the offer you make on your new house. If you’re thinking of buying and selling, south of 121st street in Jenks, Bixby, Kiefer, Mounds Glenpool, or Sapulpa. My team and I would love to assist you.
