Building Your New Home Before Selling: The Benefits of a Transition Build

By Grace Hoinowski

A transition build—building your new home before selling your current one—offers significant advantages, especially with our typical 6–8 month construction timeline. This option is ideal for homeowners with little to no mortgage or those who qualify for a new purchase before selling their existing home.

WHY CONSIDER A TRANSITION BUILD?

  1. Maximize the Spring Market
    Listing your home during the vibrant spring market increases the chances of a swift sale. By starting your new home’s construction now, you can move in shortly after your current home sells, ensuring a seamless transition.
  2. Avoid Temporary Housing Costs & Hassle
    Finding short-term housing can be expensive and inconvenient, especially in peak seasons when rental prices soar. In Eastern Sussex County, a two-bedroom apartment averages $2,000 per month. A transition build could save you $12,000–$18,000 in rent and eliminate the stress of moving twice.
  3. Save on Storage Fees
    Moving directly into your new home means you won’t need to rent a storage unit. A 200 sq. ft. climate-controlled unit costs around $275 per month, totaling over $2,200 over eight months—an expense you can avoid.
  4. Lock in Today’s Construction Pricing
    Starting your build now secures current pricing, protecting you from potential cost increases during the busier selling months.
  5. Simplify Your Financial Process
    If you qualify for a new home without selling first, a transition build makes financial management easier. It streamlines the lending process and eliminates the stress of coordinating a sale and purchase simultaneously.
  6. Personalize Your New Home
    With more time, you can make thoughtful decisions about customizations and upgrades, ensuring your new home perfectly fits your lifestyle.

A transition build not only provides practical and financial benefits but also offers peace of mind, making your move smoother and more cost-effective.
