## What this page is for

A structure that lets Lamorinda sellers buy their next home before selling their current one, often with a non-contingent offer. Homeowners who need to buy before they sell and want to avoid losing offers because of a sale contingency.

- Through capital programs BrightWork maintains access to, you may receive a purchase price on your current home.
- That lets you make a non-contingent offer on your next home before your current home sells.
- When your home sells, boosted proceeds can reduce pressure to accept a fast, discounted sale.
- Ben maps options for your timeline without naming specific lenders or dollar amounts on this page.
