If you need the cash from the sale of your current home to pay for the new house it might be a challenge to close on the new house a week later. The people selling you the cyv would have to to accept a contingency regarding the sale of your home. My hunch is you will be able to find folks willing to do this but they will most likely place a "bump out" clause on the deal. If they do that, they continue to market their place and if they get another offer you would have 2-5 days to remove all contingencies. You may want to simply wait until you have the check in the bank before trying to buy. There are plenty of houses to buy in TV
