craigslist.org

Answer 3

I think you are with the other 99% of the population of new home owners.

Answer 4

clean, declutter and price to sell.  Make sure you qualify for a home loan for the new home BEFORE putting your house up for sale. If your credit is bad you will not qualify for a loan as easliy as last time. Most mortgage companies will not let you refinace your current home if it has been on the market in the last 6 months. How will they know?? It will show up when they go to do an appraisal.

Like I said be sure you qualify for the next house before you put this one up for sale.

Also don't use anyone recommended by your realtor for financing. There is a saying in the industry...at closing you don't want your lender and realtor coming out of the same car. Go to a credit union it is easy to join. they have the best rates,more flexiblity and they usually don't transfer the servicing of the loans.(stays in one place)
