Upgrade Without the Overwhelm

Selling & Buying Simultaneously in Georgia
By Georgia brokers Ron & Addison Corbin · The Corbin Real Estate Team

Trade up without feeling homeless or rushed

Moving up to your next home sounds exciting—until you start thinking about timing, showings, finances, and where you’ll live in the gap. This guide untangles that knot and gives you a clear set of options for selling and buying in a sane, structured way.

Whether you’re upsizing, changing school districts, or just craving a different lifestyle, you’ll see the pros and cons of each strategy before you commit to one.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to:

  • Decide whether to sell first, buy first, or try a coordinated close.
  • Estimate your net proceeds—and how far they’ll go toward the next home.
  • Use contingencies, temporary occupancy, and other tools to protect yourself.
  • Prep your current home while scouting the next one (without burnout).
  • Work with your lender to structure financing for a smooth transition.
  • Build a realistic timeline that fits work, school, and family obligations.

Who this book is for

This book is especially helpful if you:

  • Already own a home in Georgia and want to move up or sideways.
  • Need the equity from your current home to buy the next one.
  • Are nervous about being stuck with two mortgages—or no home at all.
  • Prefer a calm, step-by-step plan rather than a risky leap of faith.

How to use this book

As you read, circle the scenarios that feel most like your situation. Then we’ll sit down together, plug in your actual numbers, and turn your preferred strategy into a detailed timeline with dates and tasks.
