This includes having a solid understanding of your budget, securing mortgage pre-approval, and having a plan for covering potential overlapping housing costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Temporary_Housing_Arrangements\"><\/span>Temporary Housing Arrangements<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Buying a new home before selling your current one may necessitate temporary housing arrangements.
