The smartest way to buy any home before selling the current one
Move into your new home while Sweetly markets, and services ALL the expenses on the home you'll sell. You don't need to pay two mortgages at the same time!
How the Sweet Swap Works
Unlike a traditional home sale and purchase where you can miss out on your dream home while waiting for your current home to sell, The Sweetly Home Swap lets you access your home equity to use as a downpayment, and BUY the new home you want. Sweetly will list your previous home for sale and even make all the monthly payments until it’s sold. You simply pay us back once your old home sells.
Get Pre-Approved
Shop confidently knowing you won’t need to wait on selling your current home.
Buy Your New Home First
Put down a winning offer on your dream home and move in right away. You only pay your new mortgage while we cover your old one.
Then Sell Your Old House
Sweetly will invest (with your permission) up to $25,000 on the right improvements to ensure your home shows its best and sells for top dollar.
Get Started! It only takes a few minutes!
