There are a lot of numbers to calculate, understand and discuss if you are considering selling your home -- especially if it will involve then purchasing a new home....

1. What is the value of your house in the current market?
    
   
2. What would be an appropriate list price given its current value?
    
3. How long might it take for your house to sell?
    
4. How much will your closing costs be on the sale of your home?
    
5. How much will you need to spend to purchase a home that will fit your needs?
    
6. What will the closing costs be on your home purchase?
    
7. How much of a down payment will you need for the new home?
    
8. How much will you need to bring to closing for your home purchase?
    
9. How much will you pay per month for the mortgage on your new home?
   

Many of these questions are interrelated, some require talking to a loan officer, and all of them are questions that should be discussed and considered before we put your house on the market.  I want you to have a clear view of the big picture financial transition you will be making if you decide to sell your current home and buy a new one.

This conversation can happen at my office, at your home, or at a coffee shop of your choosing.  You don't need to have come to the conclusion that you will definitely be selling in order for us to have these conversations -- let's start chatting to help you determine whether a move now makes sense, given all of the pertinent numbers and details.
