Moving Up to a Home in Edina
Sell the home you have outgrown and buy the one you need, with both moves planned together.
Moving up in Edina
For many home buyers in the metro area, a move to Edina is a move up. I'm Lesley, a REALTOR® with Bridge Realty, and we help buyers do it with a plan.
How do I move up to Edina? Pick two or three neighborhoods, learn what has sold in each, and have your financing and the sale of your current home arranged before you offer. Well-priced Edina homes can draw more than one buyer.
Renovated, original, or new?
- A renovated home costs more up front and less afterward.
- An original home costs less to buy. Price the updates before you offer.
- A newly built home on a lot where an older one stood. Review the builder's contract and warranty.
We show you recent sales of each type in the neighborhoods you like, so you can see the real price of the choice.
Making your offer competitive
An offer that depends on selling your current home is weaker than one that does not. We look at ways to remove or shorten that condition, such as listing your home first or arranging bridge financing with your lender. See move-up buyers, buying in Edina, and our Edina page.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a contingent offer work in Edina?
Sometimes. It is weaker than an offer without that condition, so we look at ways to shorten or remove it.
Should I buy a renovated home or renovate myself?
Compare recent sales of both. We show you what updated and original homes sold for in the same neighborhood.
