Talked to our builder today and they said they were going to try to close on our new build in August (guessing late August). I have no idea how accurate this is, or how much it could potentially slip.
Assuming late August is true, any advice on how far in advance we should list our current place in Round Rock (June, July, etc.) ~1800 sq ft 2 bd 2.5 bath? The builder salesman was saying go ahead and list it, said if we wait until September it's one of the worst times to sell a house. Also said we could just sell it and lease it back, which makes sense for the right buyer, but also was hoping to avoid this for an extended period if it closed quickly, doubt someone would let us have a 3 month free leaseback. Would likely have to pay, but maybe that's better if the real estate market starts to deteriorate a bit.
I don't know if he had an angle or anything, like making sure we sell that to be able to close on the new build so wanted to get any thoughts. They said they're pretty accurate once they give a 60 day to close notice, and extremely accurate at the 30 day notice.
