Sell in Massachusetts, Buy in Florida: One Broker for Both

Can I sell my Massachusetts home and buy in Florida at the same time?

Yes. Line up financing first, list the Massachusetts home, and set the Florida closing after the Massachusetts closing. Ryan C. Winslow is licensed as a broker in both states.

What does Massachusetts require from sellers?

Massachusetts sellers need a smoke and carbon monoxide certificate from the local fire department, a Title 5 septic inspection for homes on septic, and a lead paint disclosure for homes built before 1978.

What should I budget for in Florida?

Plan for homeowners and flood insurance, association dues where they apply, and property taxes before homestead applies in your first year.
