Selling and Buying at the Same Time in Ranch at Brushy Creek: what's different here

The answer depends on how much of your next down payment is in your current home and what carrying two homes for a while would cost.

Why Ranch at Brushy Creek buyers work with me

I've lived in Northwest Austin since 1976, and much of my recent business has been along the Parmer and 183 corridors as buyers follow the jobs north. When I run both sides of a move, the dates line up because one person is planning them. Ranch at Brushy Creek prices by section, and the newest section is its own market, with recent sales around $1.3 million and $1.5 million.

How I handle it in Ranch at Brushy Creek
