The Move-Up Dilemma
These are the questions keeping thousands of homeowners stuck in homes they've outgrown. The good news? These concerns aren't obstacles—they're planning opportunities.
What if we sell and can't find a home?
The fear of being homeless or settling for something less than what you want is real and valid.
What if we buy and can't sell?
Owning two properties simultaneously can strain finances and create unnecessary stress for months.
What if we end up with two mortgages?
Double payments, qualification issues, and financial pressure are legitimate concerns that need planning.

How to Buy Your Next Home Without Carrying Two Mortgages
Understanding Your Position
Before determining whether to sell first or buy first, you need to understand your current equity position and financial capacity.
1Calculate Your Net Equity
Estimated home value minus remaining mortgage balance and estimated selling costs (typically 8-10% of sale price).
2Assess Your Down Payment Capacity
How much cash do you have available for a down payment without accessing your home equity?
3Review Your Debt-to-Income Ratio
Can you qualify for a new mortgage while still carrying your current one? This is the critical question.
4Understand Your Local Market
Is it a buyer's market (more inventory, longer days on market) or seller's market (low inventory, quick sales)?
Pro Tip
Most lenders require that your total debt-to-income ratio remain below 43-45%. If your current mortgage is $2,500/month and you're approved for $4,000/month, you can only carry both mortgages if the new one is under $1,500/month—which is rare.
