Can I buy a home before selling my current one?

Answered by Onias Derilus, Mortgage Capital · NMLS# 1859012 · Florida licensed mortgage broker

Yes. If you qualify carrying both payments, you can buy first. If not, a bridge loan or a HELOC on your current home can fund the new down payment until your sale closes.

Some buyers also use the projected rent or a sale contract on the departing home to qualify. We'll structure the timing so you're not forced into a contingent offer in a competitive Florida market.
