What To Do If a Buyer Needs to Sell Their House First
Overview
Imagine this: It’s been weeks since you first listed your house, and although many potential buyers have shown interest, none have committed. Then, you hear from an agent whose client loves your home and wants to buy it. The catch? The buyer needs to sell their own house first. So, what should you do in this scenario?
Strategies to Consider
As a home seller, you have a few options. To protect your interests, politely inform the buyer that you cannot hold your property until they sell their house. However, reassure them that if your home is still available once they sell, you would be happy to proceed with them.
Many buyers might offer a contingent deal, but this can be risky. Accepting such an offer means you must inform your agent and any other interested parties. Knowing someone else has a claim might deter other potential buyers from considering your home, as they might assume it’s already reserved.
Additionally, buyers ready to purchase immediately might move on rather than wait for the first buyer to fulfill their contingent offer. They prefer not to waste time waiting for uncertainties when they could be exploring other properties.
If Accepting a Contingent Offer
Should you choose to accept a contingent offer, keep your house on the market. You cannot be certain of the buyer’s ability to complete the deal, so it’s wise to maintain visibility. Let potential buyers know about the contingent agreement. If someone else is genuinely interested, this pending contract shouldn’t prevent them from making an offer.
By approaching the situation with clarity and open communication, you can navigate the complexities of contingent offers without compromising your opportunities in the real estate market.
