[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I don't understand why you sold your house without some place to go? You could have put a home contingency on offers you make on other houses or you could have made home-of-choice contingency in your selling contract. Your agent must really suck.[/quote] Because people are not accepting contracts with contingencies so we have to sell first. Our realtor has been very optimistic that there are about to be many houses in the market so we followed his lead And we do have someplace to go, just not our own house yet. [/quote] Your agent has served you poorly. Just wanted to push you to sell for the commission. You can buy houses with home contingencies.[/quote] PP This is DC Urban Moms not Iowa where no one wants to live Moms. It is rare to find a buyer in a sub $1 million price range in a decent inside the Beltway neighborhood who will take an offer contingent on the sale of a house. Maybe the settlement if the buyer's house is under contract, but not the sale.[/quote] It's really not that rare. NP. [/quote] It's pretty fucking rare if you want to live somewhere good instead of whitebread suburbia.[/quote] We just bought last year in a very desirable location with generally low inventory. First house on the market in several months. Sellers could ask anything they want - including HOC contingency. We did the same on our old home (also desirable area). Contracts on both in days. Our agent said it was fairly common. Maybe they are more common in desirable areas where the seller has more control. [/quote]
