Upsizing in Davie, Florida

Anthony Spitaleri, REALTOR® | EXP Realty

You have outgrown your current Davie home. The neighborhood is right, the school zones are right, the lifestyle is right. What you need is more space, a larger lot, or a community that matches where your family is now. The challenge is doing it without getting the timing wrong on two sides of the same transaction.

Anthony Spitaleri is a licensed REALTOR® with EXP Realty, focused exclusively on the Davie single-family market. He knows where Davie families move when they upsize, what the inventory looks like in each destination community, and how to coordinate the sale of your current home and the purchase of your next one without unnecessary risk on either side.

Who This Service Is For

  • Families in Rolling Hills, the University area, or smaller Davie communities ready to move into Long Lake Ranches, Imagination Farms, or a larger equestrian property
  • Homeowners who have built equity and want to apply it toward more land, more bedrooms, or a different community character
  • Buyers who need to sell first but want to know their options before their listing goes live
  • Sellers who want to protect their equity position by maximizing the sale price of their current home before buying
  • Families who want one agent managing both the sale and the purchase with coordinated timelines

The Challenges of Buying and Selling at the Same Time

  • Underpricing the current home out of urgency and losing equity that should fund the next purchase
  • Owning two Davie homes at once because the timelines did not align
  • Missing the replacement property because the current home sale took longer than expected
  • Not knowing the real equity position until deep in the process
  • Working with two agents who are not communicating with each other on timing

How Anthony Coordinates the Upsizer Transaction

The principle is simple. Sell the current home fast and for maximum value so you have equity, certainty, and a clean runway to buy the next one. Everything else flows from that.

Sell First, Strategically

Speed on the current sale controls everything else. Anthony prepares a data-driven CMA before recommending a price. Professional photography, a written marketing plan, targeted advertising, and a coordinated launch in the first seven days are standard on every listing he handles.

Know Your Equity Before You Start Shopping

Before you schedule your first showing on a replacement property, you need an accurate picture of what your current home will net after costs. Anthony walks through that number in the initial strategy call so you are shopping with real information, not estimates.

Contingency Strategy When You Need It

Some Davie upsizers want to secure their next home before the current one closes. Anthony structures contingent offers strategically, keeps the contingency window as short as possible, and communicates proactively with the replacement home’s sellers throughout.

One Agent, Both Sides, Aligned Timelines

Anthony represents upsizer clients on both the sale and the purchase. One person managing both timelines, one set of communication, and a clear understanding of how the two transactions affect each other at every stage.

Where Davie Families Move When They Upsize

From

  • Rolling Hills: established community with mature trees, solid schools, the most common starting point for Davie upsizers
  • University area and Stirling Road corridor: entry-level Davie, the most common launchpad for first upsizer moves
  • Smaller equestrian-adjacent properties: buyers who started with a standard lot and want to step into true acreage

To

  • Long Lake Ranches: gated estate community with custom homes on oversized lots and private lake access. Homes typically start above $800,000.
  • Imagination Farms: equestrian-zoned acreage with boarding access and riding trails. Demand consistently exceeds supply.
  • Larger equestrian communities near Tree Tops Park and Flamingo Road: ranch-style properties with direct trail access

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I buy a new home in Davie while selling my current one?
Most Davie upsizers sell first, then purchase. Anthony coordinates both by maximizing the speed and price of the current sale so you have a clean equity position and a defined buying window. For clients who want to buy before selling, he structures contingent offers strategically to minimize the risk of owning two homes at once.
Should I sell my Davie home before looking for my next one?
In most cases, yes. Selling first gives you certainty on your equity position and makes your offer on the next property cleaner and more competitive. Anthony walks through both paths in the initial strategy call so you can decide based on your specific situation.
What neighborhoods in Davie make sense for upsizers?
The most common upsizer destinations in Davie are Long Lake Ranches, Imagination Farms, and the larger equestrian properties near Tree Tops Park and Flamingo Road. Where you land depends on whether space, equestrian access, privacy, or a specific school zone is the priority.
What is the biggest financial risk in an upsizer transaction?
The biggest risk is underpricing the current home out of urgency. Every dollar left on the table in the current sale is a dollar missing from the down payment on the next one. Anthony maximizes the current sale first, then applies that equity position to purchase the replacement home.
Can one agent represent me on both the sale and the purchase?
Yes. Anthony represents upsizer clients on both sides. It means better timeline coordination, one set of communication, and an agent who understands how the two transactions affect each other in real time.
Is there a free consultation to discuss upsizing in Davie?
Yes. The strategy call covers your current home value, your equity position, what your budget looks like on the other side, and which neighborhoods make sense. No pressure. No obligation.
