I would line up your sale strategy with the homes buyers have actually rewarded.
If you need to move and sell at the same time, I would anchor your plan in recent closings, not in best-case thinking. In Guilderland, NY, six homes closed over the last three months with a typical closed price of $532,450, which gives me a clearer benchmark for planning than broad guesses ever could.
For a seller planning the next move, recent closings matter most. Over the last three months in Guilderland, NY, there were 6 closed homes with a typical closed price of $532,450 and a typical price of $183 per square foot.
I would use that range to build a move plan backward. It gives you a firmer place to estimate proceeds, compare likely options, and decide whether your next purchase needs to happen before or after your sale.
Start with your equity goal, not your dream list. Compare your home to the recent closed size and price range before you set expectations. In Guilderland, NY, sequence matters, so make your sell-first or buy-first plan early.
