Know the Market
Before you decide to start the whole process, do your research so you know what kind of market you're dealing with. Figure out how to sell your existing home efficiently and quickly. If done effectively, this step can make the rest of the process much easier to handle.
Decide WHEN You Want to Sell
When you sell your home you must realize that the timeline in your head is not set in stone, and it will change. With this thought in mind, plan ahead and decide if you need to wait to sell or not. Some folks get lucky and have friends or family they can stay with throughout the building process. Others decide to rent or stay in a hotel. Either way, there is no way to be sure when your house will sell. Some people sell their house in a few days, some wait several months.
Communicate with Your Resources
Have an open discussion with whomever necessary to get the ball rolling. Get hard deadlines from your realtor, bank, and construction division so that you can be sure about moving dates.Have a plan mapped out from the beginning, and always remember to give yourself wiggle room. For example, if your home is scheduled to be closed on in six months, fine;however, you should plan now for what you will do if that deadline is pushed out further.
