If you already own a home and want to move up, the big question is timing: do you buy your next home first, or sell your current one first?
Selling first
Pros: you know exactly how much equity you have and you’re a stronger, non-contingent buyer. Cons: you may need interim housing.
Buying first
Pros: no rush to move twice. Cons: you may carry two payments briefly, and contingent offers can be weaker in a competitive market.
