Moving up in Louisville? Here’s the question I’m hearing most: should you sell your house first, or buy first?

With fewer buyers signing contracts this fall, the order matters more than it did a couple of years ago. A few quick takeaways:

✔ Selling first tells you your real budget
✔ Buyers who don’t have to sell first write stronger offers
✔ A rent-back or a longer closing can give you time to find your next place
✔ Buying first can work, but only with a plan for two payments

Under contract and having second thoughts? You’re not alone. About 1 in 7 home purchases fell through in September, according to Redfin.

Before you walk away from a home in Southern Indiana, know this:
✅ Your inspection and financing contingencies have deadlines
✅ Indiana has specific rules for who gets the earnest money
✅ Renegotiating often beats starting over
