Buying & Selling Simultaneously Guide

Buying and selling at the same time is one of the most common moves in real estate, and one of the most stressful if you don’t have a plan. Where will you live in between? How do you time both closings? What if your home doesn’t sell fast enough?

I’m Tracie Diemert, a Real Estate Agent in Marysville, WA. I’ve been helping Snohomish County families make this move since 2001. I put together this guide to walk you through it from start to finish, so you can hand over your old keys and pick up your new ones with confidence.

Inside the guide:

✔️ The 10-step game plan for buying and selling at the same time, from running the numbers to backup plans
✔️ Contingencies, bridge financing, and leasebacks explained in plain English
✔️ A room-by-room Home Prep Checklist to get your house market-ready
✔️ The truth about pricing, and why homes priced right from day one sell for more
✔️ Staging and showing checklists to make a great first impression
✔️ A lender questionnaire and home search worksheet for your next purchase
✔️ How to write an offer that stands out, even while you’re still selling
✔️ Under contract and pre-closing checklists so no deadline slips
✔️ A week-by-week moving checklist for a smooth moving day

Fun fact: 72% of homeowners who plan to sell this year are also planning to buy. You’re in good company!
