Buy before you sell

There's a better way to buy your next home

If you're like most people, you'd need to sell your old home before you could buy a new one. But now you've got a better option. We've partnered with Homeward so you can make a cash offer on the new home you love and then sell your old one.

Buy first, sell second

Avoid the risk and hassle of selling first so you can move on your terms and timeline.

Shop with confidence

Enjoy the certainty of being a cash buyer with a guaranteed offer on your old home*

Close faster

Eliminate the finance and home sale contingencies for a faster close. 

Rent

Deferred until you close

Homeward prorates your rent by day. Buyers pay an average of only 45 days of rent.

Buy before you sell for an effective fee of 1.4%*
Convenience fee

Often rolled into mortgage

The standard convenience fee in Florida is 1.9%. But if you use Homeward Mortgage, you'll receive a 0.5% credit at closing, making your effective convenience fee 1.4%.

*Homeward's standard convenience fee is 1.9% of the purchase price of your new home. If you finance your purchase with HOmward Mortgage, Homeward's affiliated lender, Homeward will contribute 0.5% of the purchase price toward your closing costs, so that you pay an effective convenience fee of 1.45. That said, you're free to obtain your loan from any mortgage lender you choose and still make a Homward Cash Offer. 

Buy your next home the calmer, more convenient way

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS

1. Get Approved

Homeward approves you for a specific amount so you can start shopping and be ready to make an offer as soon as the house you want comes on the market.

2. Make a cash offer

We work with Homeward to make a cash offer on your new home. Cash offers are four times more likely to beat financed bids

3. Win the home

The seller accepts you offer. We work to finalize the purchase. You'll have a few tasks to complete, too, including paying your earnest money deposit, scheduling an inspection and signing mortgage disclosure documents.

4. Move into your new home

You can move into your new home as soon as Homeward closes on it. Prorated rent begins the day of the closing and you can rent from them for up to six months.

5. List and sell your old home

List your old home and sell it for top dollar. Homeward is able to provide Floor Price Certainty to most homebuyers. So if you home doesn't sell in six months, they'll buy it from you.

6. Buy back your new home

Finalize your mortgage and close on your new home buy buying it back from Homeward.
