Home / Relocating to Sacramento / Corporate relocation
Corporate relocation to the Sacramento region
Selling your current home when your company moves you to Sacramento
The short answer: If the home you are leaving is in California and in the area we work, Maggie or I can sell it. If it is anywhere else in the country, we have a network of vetted agents and can connect you with one. Either way, we plan the sale and your Sacramento purchase around each other. Your employer’s relocation policy decides what help you get, so read it first.
Planning the sale and the purchase together
- Timing: when your new job starts, when you need to be in Sacramento, and when the old home should be on the market.
- The loan: Maggie looks at how the sale and the purchase fit together before you make an offer.
- The policy: whether your employer offers home-sale help, a lump sum, or neither.
A note on money and taxes
Relocation benefits and home sales can have tax effects. I cannot give tax or legal advice, so please talk with a tax professional and your relocation team before you decide.

Questions people ask
Can the same team sell my old home and help me buy in Sacramento?
If your old home is in California and in the area we work, Maggie or I can sell it. If it is anywhere else in the country, we have a network of vetted agents and can connect you with one. Either way, we plan it alongside your Sacramento purchase.
Does my employer’s policy change how I sell?
It can. Some policies include home-sale help and some do not. Read yours and ask your relocation team before you list.
