Plymouth · Trading Up
Trading up to your next Plymouth home
Moving out of a starter home, with the order of your sale and your purchase worked out first.
Trading up in Plymouth
Trading up in Plymouth can go in two directions. Some owners move from a downtown condo to a house with a yard. Others move from a neighborhood farther out to a home within walking reach of Kellogg Park.
Either way, you're selling one home and buying another, and we plan the order before anything goes on the market.
Planning both moves
We start with your current home's value, from the sales near it, so your lender can show you what your next home can cost. Then we decide whether to buy first or sell first, based on your finances.
Living close to downtown Plymouth is pricey, so if that's your goal, I'll show you recent sales early so the plan is realistic.
Selling your current home
Your home gets the full plan: photos, video, drone, a property website, and a paid social media campaign. If it's a downtown condo, the marketing shows how close it is to Kellogg Park. Read about selling your home in Plymouth. I run a checklist on both sides, and you hear the next step before you ask.
