How to Sell and Buy a Home at the Same Time (with Pomroy Builders Group by Your Side)

Selling your current home while buying your next one is one of the trickiest transitions in real estate — but with a strategic plan and trusted team, it can be seamless. As a Houston Bay Area REALTOR®, I help clients navigate both sides of the transaction — and together with Pomroy Builders Group, we streamline updates, repairs, and renovations so your home is market-ready.

Step 1: Clarify Your Goals & Timeline

We start by mapping your priorities: are you looking for more space, relocating, or preparing for resale? From there, I help you understand market value, your budget, and whether it makes more sense in your case to sell first or buy first.

Step 2: Prepare Your Home to Sell (Smart Upgrades)

Because appearance impacts offers, it’s often wise to make certain renovations or repairs before listing. That’s where my collaboration with Pomroy Builders Group comes in — they assist with updates (flooring, paint, minor remodels) that can boost appeal. I coordinate that process so you don’t have to manage contractors.

Step 3: List & Market Your Home

Once your home is ready, I handle marketing, showing, negotiations, and offer management. My goal is to attract strong offers and smooth the path toward closing.

Step 4: Find & Secure Your Next Home

While your current home is on the market, we’ll search for your next place. I’ll guide you through your financing options and strategies like contingent offers, bridge loans, or leaseback arrangements (if applicable). These provide flexibility during overlap. All with your preferred Loan Originator.

Step 5: Seamless Transition with One Team

With me as your REALTOR® and Pomroy Builders Group as your building partner, you’re backed by a coordinated, full-service team. Whether it’s final touch-ups before closing or customizing your new space, we aim for a smooth and efficient move.
