A calmer, more certain alternative to real estate. Avoid the stress, risk, and hassle of buying and selling at the same time. HomeLight will buy your current home giving you the freedom to buy your new home.
HomeLight will work with Cesi Pagano & Associates to make a competitive cash offer on your current home. That's the price HomeLight will pay you for your home as soon as you're ready to move into your new home.
Make a strong offer on your new home
When you’ve found the home of your dreams, you can make an offer knowing HomeLight will buy your current house. This means you’re more likely to close and can do so on your own timeline.
Move in on your schedule
You control when you move. Once your offer is accepted, everything comes together in days. You won’t have to race against the clock, move into a temporary residence, or carry two mortgages. HomeLight buys your current home at the HomeLight Purchase Price and you get the cash to close on your dream home whenever you’re ready.
Get full market value when we sell your home
Cesi Pagano & Associates goes to work and lists your current home for sale. If your home sells for more than the HomeLight Purchase Price you get the additional cash minus selling costs and program fees.

HomeLight Trade-In enabled us to break out of our current budget into a higher budget. Moving into a bigger house with a swimming pool and a huge backyard are definitely things you appreciate every day. I’m pretty confident we would not have ended up here if it weren’t for HomeLight.

The HomeLight Trade-In product is probably the greatest thing that has come along in the last, I think 12 years in my opinion. I think the major benefits of using HomeLight Trade-In is to give your seller the option to be able to buy at the same time that they're selling. Read the full story
