Selling your current home and buying your next one at the same time is the single most stressful transaction in residential real estate. Wilson Lau Real Estate Group sequences both sides — timing, financing, contingencies, and possession — so you’re not carrying two mortgages or moving twice. One team handles both transactions, so nothing falls between two agents.
Who this is for
- Move-up buyers who need equity from the current home to fund the next
- Downsizers timing a sale against a smaller purchase
- Families who can’t move twice
- Anyone told “you have to sell first” and unsure whether that’s true
Our process
- The math first. Equity, net proceeds, new payment, and what you can actually qualify for while still owning.
- Choose the sequence. Buy first, sell first, or simultaneous close — each has a cost, and we quantify it.
- Bridge options. Bridge loans, HELOCs, contingent offers, rent-backs, and buy-before-you-sell programs.
- Coordinated launch. We time the listing and the search so the two escrows line up.
- Dual escrow management. One point of contact managing both closings and both sets of deadlines.
- Possession plan. Rent-backs and move logistics so you have somewhere to sleep on closing night.
Why work with us
- One team, both sides. No finger-pointing between a listing agent and a buyer’s agent.
- We model the sequences. You’ll see the cost of buying first versus selling first in dollars, not opinions.
- Negotiation is standard for us. Every one of our clients’ situations is different, hence negotiation is key in executing the best possible plan for your move.
