Like the classic negotiating problem called the prisoner’s dilemma, there are trade-offs when deciding if you should sell your current home before buying, or buy before selling.
If you make one choice—sell first, then buy—you stand to lose one way. But if you make the other choice—buy first, then sell—you stand to lose another way. Which risk should you take?
Here's a short guide to help you weigh the pros and cons of your choices. As always, please forward this to someone you think might be able to use it. Thanks!
