THE EXIT IS PRICED BEFORE THE ENTRY: EVERY WAY OUT OF THE HOUSE, ON YOUR NUMBERS.

A broker cannot tell you whether your job is stable or where the market will be in three years. A broker can tell you, on the actual house, what leaving would cost and how long it would take. That is the second discipline on /how-robert-works, price every exit on the same house, run before the purchase instead of after it. The net sheet at /tools/net-sheet prices an open-market sale, a two-closing advance and a single-closing cash sale on one value, with the source beside every number.

The alternative to selling in a bad month is holding. The tool at /tools/rent-vs-sell prices selling now against renting the house for a period you choose and selling after, on your own rent, vacancy and carrying cost. It turns the market cycle question into a decision you can make later with numbers instead of a bet you make now with a feeling.

Job stability, the size of your reserves, and what the down payment would earn elsewhere are financial planning questions. Homesy5280 does not answer them and does not pretend to; they belong with a fiduciary financial planner, and the tax side of any of it belongs with the CPA. The fit page /is-homesy-right-for-you says the practice suits a buyer who wants the risk laid out in writing before deciding, and this page is that promise applied to the exit.
