Comment on Rethink: Possession Day by Marc Kelly

Brin,

One reason I often see people looking for a specific possession date that matches moving day is the situation where people are selling their existing home, and buying a new one. Often, they anticipate a seemless transaction where the sale is going to result in a cheque being obtained in the morning, and that will pay for the property they are purchasing in the afternoon.

In reality, the transactions don’t always work that way. There are a number of reasons that we may not have sale funds on the possession day. Trying to match purchases up like that can result in unwanted headaches.

I would strongly suggest that clients get bridge financing for those transactions, and pick a possession date that fits for them, as you suggest above. Bridge financing will alleviate some last minute stress that can occur as the lawyers are trying to get your clients in their new home.

I guess great minds must think a like Brin. Too funny that you were going to post this and we were thinking the same thing.

Fantastic blog post and summary of the issue. It is amazing to see how many things we do just because everyone does!

Well put Brin, this is exactly where our industry needs to go.

It is refreshing to see someone actually living the change they want to see.

I tip my hat to the team at Rockstar Homes -

Right on Brin! Great article…I fully agree.

I always cringe at the thought of the money spent on this exact full page “promotion” of Top Producers every Saturday in the newspaper. Quite frankly, who cares…I know I don’t!
