Can You Sell One Home and Buy Two at Once in Haverhill MA?

The quick answer: Yes. In 2016 a seller in Haverhill MA had their home under agreement at full asking price within a week. Then Lisa Sevajian helped the seller and her husband each buy a separate home. Three deals ran at once, with lender, insurance, movers and cleaners lined up along the way.

It's never just the house. Sometimes it's a baby, a breakup, a parent, or a fresh start.

Sometimes one house turns into two. Life changes, and suddenly you're selling one home and buying two.

It's a lot to hold at once. If you're there, you aren't alone, and you don't have to hold it by yourself.

Here's how one seller in Haverhill MA did it. No names, just their real story from their review.

What was the situation?

In 2016, a seller in Haverhill MA was selling a single family home. Then she and her husband each bought a separate home.

What made it hard?

That's three deals: one sale and two purchases. Each has its own lender, inspection, attorney and closing date. The seller said she was sure she'd lose her mind.

How do I help in a move like this?

When there's a lot happening, I take things off your plate. I keep every date on one calendar. I connect you with lenders, insurance agents, movers and cleaners I trust, so you aren't searching on your own at midnight.

Price is your choice on the sale. On each purchase, we negotiate a fair price and terms you're comfortable with.

What happened?

The home was under agreement at full asking price within a week. Then they each bought a separate home. The seller said I was available around the clock and helped with the lender, insurance, movers and cleaners.

“She takes care of her buyers and her sellers.”
