When people have a house to sell before they buy their next home, how can they make that work?

1. If they need their net proceeds out of their home to buy their next home there are a few options to consider:
o Some people fear the risk of two payments and will not make a move without selling their home first.
o That’s ok, it just creates a little bit more, carefully times work on our part, we can do it though
o I recently had a client who was in that situation but they qualify for both the home they are selling and the one they are buying,

❖ We were seeing homes they were interested in flying off the shelf
➢Scheduled 3 homes on Thursday for Sat am show
➢ 2 were canceled because they went U/C on Friday
➢That is in a $575-600K price point!
❖They got a Heloc line of credit to use as their down payment
❖Qualified to Buy First then take their time selling and moving out…Ahhh! Much less stress if you can do that

2. If you need to Sell first here are the options:
●Put your home on the market, make an offer contingent on your home selling
●Might get shot down a bit
●Wait to get a contract then make an offer contingent on your home closing
●Puts closing in doubt for your seller because waiting for 2 deals to go through

Take advantage of our Catch 22 Solution of our Guaranteed Sale, we offer a guaranteed sale program.
Must agree on a price, to find out more about we would have to see the home first and meet and discuss the sale.

What are some OTHER THINGS PEOPLE SHOULD CONSIDER when they have a house to sell?
Talk to a lender you trust first, make sure you are prepared before you accept a contract. There are only two ‘outs’ in a contract for a seller.
Inspection and Appraisal, Consult with a great real estate agent that does these all the time. We write and get these contracts accepted all the time.

As a busy professional living in Denver, I had very little time to deal with selling my rental townhome. Barb and her team took care of everything, met the former tenant to turn over the property, took care of repairs, installed attractive staging furniture, took great photos and the results were excellent! She sold my townhome in a very short time at a full asking price. I closed remotely without even visiting the property. I highly recommend Barb Schlinker.

Barb and her team worked hard throughout the entire process in selling our home. Barb always took the time to answer any questions we had. We sold our home for $65,000 over asking price. We would highly recommend Barb if you are thinking about selling your home. Ed and Michelle Thompson

This was certainly my most pleasant real estate experience. Honestly Barb and her team are exceptional. Any question or concern was taken care of and she sold for 12% over asking price. I wish Barb worked where I’m moving so that I could hire her again. This is coming from someone who has purchased several homes. By far she is the best that I have worked with.

Barb is very professional, honest and reliable. She has sold two houses for us and exceeded our expectations each time. I have found that I can rely on her completely for all aspects of the paperwork/documents that selling or buying a house entails. Both of our houses sold within days of being listed with Barb. She does an excellent job of marketing and promotion.

I have a marketing degree and I am just amazed at how Barb Schlinker and her Barb has the Buyers offer is so compelling for home sellers. This is the best real estate company to work for if you want to buy or sell real estate.

Kailee Clark

We heard about Barb on the radio and asked her to help us sell mine and my Mom’s home next door. She helped us prepare our homes for sale so they showed really well. Barb had at least 80 people in at the Open House and both homes sold for way over asking price in just a few days. Her team helped with the entire process and we were able to make our next move as scheduled.

Barb is calmly confident and competent. Her knowledge of her craft is very impressive. We have sold two houses using her services, and I can assure anyone wishing to sell their property, they will be impressed and happy with the process and the results if they use Barb as their real estate agent.

Frank Steyaert

We are so pleased that we worked with Barb Schlinker to sell our home at 1450 Masters Drive in Woodland Park. Barb and her team go to great lengths to ensure the home is presented to the market in such a way to command top dollar for the home. From the elegant video production, great photos and beautiful pictures, it all went very well. Barb was able to negotiate for us to stay in the home well after closing allowing us to move to our next location at a comfortable pace. Barb Schlinker and Tom Parker were great to work with to get my home sold. They did an excellent job on photos and marketing. I had previously tried with another agent that resulted in no sale. But when I hired Barb and Tom everything went as planned. When it turned out I needed a new roof, they suggested a roofing company that was able to finish the job quickly and minimize my out-of-pocket expenses. I was able to sell my home for top dollar and they helped me prepare for my move. I highly recommend Barb Schlinker and her team to sell your home.

Barb was able to help us reduce our property tax valuation by over $221,000! What a savings on property taxes and insurance premiums! She uses a formula that accurately assesses the value of one's home. She was very prompt and very pleasant to work with. We highly recommend her for all real estate needs.

Edie Darrah

We hired Barb to sell our home in Calhan. We got several great offers and it sold for $15,000 over our asking price in just 5 days. Having formerly been a Real Estate agent, it was so refreshing to have a great agent like Barb who fought for us all the way to closing. She was so helpful and professional. Barb was always available when we needed anything or had questions. We highly recommend using Barb Schlinker to sell your home.

The whole experience working with Barb Schlinker and her team was extraordinary. From advice to prepare for sale, beautiful staging, support with moving and great communication, Barb is by far the best choice to sell a home in the Colorado Springs area.

After hearing Barb on the radio where she outlined her methods for selling homes, I am so pleased that we hired her to handle the sale of our home. We had already moved out, and she and her team installed very attractive staging furniture so it showed beautifully. In just one short week. Barb obtained several buyers competing for our home and she sold our home for $5000 over asking price. Her team handled everything from there and made the process very easy. Having Barb handle the sale of our home gave me great peace-of-mind throughout the entire process.

8130 Avens Cir, CS, CO 80920 - Donna S

We have bought and sold approximately 20 properties. No agent has even come close to the quality Barb offers. Her marketing was superb - generating 4 offers; and we had an accepted contract within a week, closing within a month. The icing on the cake though, is Barb herself. She's open, friendly, knowledgeable and most important, accessible ! Barb is worth ever dollar of the commission she will earn!

It was such an easy process to sell my home with Barb Schlinker. I first met Barb a few years back and decided to stay in the home during the pandemic period and I’m so glad I did. That decision allowed me to add another $100,000 of value to my home in a short period of time. With the first meeting Barb provided a staging consultation that helped me get my home ready for sale on my schedule. Her Certified Pre-Owned Home program revealed I needed a new roof and because it was done in advance of the sale, her program set the stage so I could deal with the roof on my schedule and negotiate the best possible deal. Not only did Barb market the home so well that I had a lot of people come and look at the home, but I received two offers at the same time and that’s where it got exciting. Barb’s negotiating skills went into high gear and she was able to get the buyers to make their highest offers, giving me great choices on selling my home for nearly $10,000 over asking price in just 11 days. It was a really nice benefit that her program included house cleaning. That was a very nice touch that made my move effortless.

After hearing Barbs radio ads and looking at her website, it was obvious Barb and her team has the best system for selling our home. Not only did she sell it for full asking price in just 6 days, but she made sure our home has a warranty for the buyer for 1 year after closing. It was so helpful that her team took care of a final move-out clean. It helped us easily plan our move and ensured the family enjoyed a stress-free move. We highly recommend Barb and her team to sell your home. Dale & Krystal

Krystal Wager

It was refreshing to work with Barb and her team at Your Home Sold Guaranteed. She sold our home for $17000 over asking price in a short time and everything went smoothly. We loved how she took the time to measure the home to make sure it was marketed at the right size and the photos were amazing. Barb was able to get a huge crowd at the open house which got us several great offers to choose from. Then she handled the sales process every step of the way for us and make it simple and easy. We highly recommend Barb and her team.
