Buying A House While Selling One

TheMalcolmConnection · 02-21-2018, 06:33 PM

My wife and I did this a few years back because we fell in love with the house we currently own. If you have any possibility of NOT owning two homes at once, stop what you're doing right now.

Was easily the second most stressful time of my life behind my brother dying in a car accident.

I don't know your finances, but we sat on our old house for about a year (we bought during the boom, so bought high) and then ended up selling it making $1,000 TOTAL after living there for years and doing tons of upgrades. I stress this to everyone I know in this situation, if you can help it (or you have tons of cash) do NOT own two homes at once.
