03 · What to Do Next
Protect the plan.
These are the three highest value conversations to have before listing your home or making an offer.
- 01
Keep the planned cushion separate from the down payment.
- 02
Confirm the expected sale proceeds with a property specific net sheet.
- 03
Have a lender verify the payment and closing cash before making an offer.
04 · The Next Payment
Know the monthly change too.
This planning estimate includes principal, interest, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and any entered association fee.

05 · Closing Sequence
Not sure yetLet the numbers choose the sequence.
The plan appears possible after the current home sells. The next decision is how much timing risk and temporary inconvenience you want.

Before You Commit
Three ways sellers get caught.
They spend gross equity.
The sale price is not the cash you receive. Payoffs, title, transfer, compensation, repairs, credits, and taxes come first.
They use every dollar.
A larger down payment can feel safe while leaving no room for repairs, furnishings, emergencies, or a delayed closing.
They ignore the overlap.
Storage, movers, temporary housing, possession, and carrying two homes can change an otherwise comfortable plan.
