Should you sell before you buy? Benefits, risks and strategy

‍

A frequent... and strategic question

Many homeowners are wondering: Should I sell before I buy, or buy before I sell? There is no single answer, but scenarios to study according to your situation, finances and the market.

1. Selling first: financial security and peace of mind

By selling first, you know exactly what your budget is for buying. You avoid double charges (two loans, two property taxes) and you can buy without a resale clause.

Disadvantage: you may have to rent temporarily if you do not find the new property immediately.

2. Buy first: reactivity and crush

This allows you not to miss an ideal property if you come across it before selling. You secure your future living space.

But be careful : this implies having the means to finance two properties temporarily (contribution + bridge loan), or to be very reactive when selling the old one.
