How does the “BUY BEFORE YOU SELL” program work?

HomeLight buys your current home so you can avoid the stress, risk, and hassle of buying

and selling at the same time.

What are the selling costs and program fees?

Once the property sells on the market, HomeLight deducts our actual selling costs, including: agent fees, listing prep work paid by HomeLight, and property ownership costs incurred during HomeLight’s ownership, such as property taxes and utility bills. 

HomeLight also deducts the program fee, which is dependent on your market, the lender you use, and the number of days we own your home. All fees are calculated off of the final selling price of your current home. Additional costs may apply based on local tax laws.
