I want to buy before we sell. I never want to sell I house I am living in every again, empty it out, clean it up and hand it over to the realtor is my plan.

Not to hijack the thread, but this makes life so much easier if you can afford that luxury. I wanted to have time to do some painting and minor renovations in my new house before it was cluttered with boxes. And moving everything piecemeal over a couple weeks is so much easier than having to move everything you own in a day or two.

Only downside for me was that Ida hit during my transition so I had two houses I had to stress about during the storm. Fortunately neither took serious damage, but I had to delay listing my other one for a few weeks while I cleared all the tree limbs and debris. On the positive side, demand for houses with no trees on them and with whole-home generators installed probably went up . Moral of the story is to save plenty in case something unforeseen keeps you from selling the other one on your original timeline.
