When costs or timing are driving a sale.
Carrying costs, outstanding balances or another planned purchase can make timing important. Share the dates and financial concerns affecting your decision so a possible purchase can be considered in context.
Start with the dates and amounts you know
Explain ongoing costs, available payoff information and any deadlines already communicated to you. Andrew can discuss a possible purchase price and schedule. Your lawyer and title professionals confirm the payoffs and other requirements for the sale.
Compare what you would keep
Consider the proposed price after closing costs, outstanding obligations and any work you retain. A preferred closing date still depends on the contract and required work. Compare those terms with other ways of selling before deciding.
Questions about costs and timing
Can I discuss a sale if I have a mortgage or overdue taxes?
Yes. Share the balances, notices and dates you know. Your lawyer and title professionals confirm what must be addressed for a sale, while Andrew considers the price and terms of a possible purchase.
Can you promise a particular closing date?
No. A proposed schedule depends on property checks, title work, any approvals and the purchase agreement.
How do I compare the offer with what I owe?
Compare the price with confirmed payoffs, closing costs and any responsibilities you retain. Your lawyer and other relevant professionals can help establish those amounts.
What if I also need to buy another property?
Explain how the transactions relate. Timing can be discussed, but neither purchase should be treated as certain before its conditions are satisfied.
