buyers, search homes in a particular price range with a 5 year+ transfer date.
The average buyer moves up by 50% of their current home’s value.
To figure your price range, take the assessed value of the home you’re selling and divide by 1.5.
Example: the assessed value of the home is $750,000 / 1.5 =$500,000.
