I am selling 513 Red bud lane for $179,900 and would like to trade up to a new home around $325,000. Any builders or home owners out there looking to trade?

Many builders offer these options. They will base the trade on condition, location and perceived ability to sell. Be prepared for a lower price than your current asking price. The other issue is you will have to remove your home from the market before you start any of these negotiations or risk the possibility of a selling commission even though the transaction is a trade. Consult your listing agreement if you are selling through a real estate brokerage at this time. Good Luck...hope all works out for you.

Good Morning Laurie,

Is your house listed with an agent? Before you decide to buy ....... you have
to evaluate your situation first assuming you did a carefully market analysis
on this property is your income suffice to go on the higher price? Yes or No
if you do, now is the right time to buy another house but you have to concentrate
on selling your house first..
