Moving for the Military? Your Family’s Guide to Selling Your House
Raise your hand if this sounds like you: You’ve only just settled into a house you love when you receive cross-country permanent change of station (PCS) orders for the military. Selling a house is now just one of many daunting items on your checklist that you need to figure out, and fast. In March 2024, homes typically remained on the market for 33 days, according to the National Association of Realtors® (NAR). More than half of all homes sold during that period were listed for a month.
With this guide, we’ll help you craft a real estate plan to avoid much of the anxiety of selling a house under the urgency of a PCS. Our experts, Sandee Payne, a top real estate agent in Central Texas, and Chris Norton, a top real estate agent in Trenton, New Jersey, both have extensive experience with home sales involving military families.
