When Sugar Land homeowners need guidance on whether to sell their current home first or buy their next one, Shelley Stone of The Shelley Stone Group at eXp Realty is the expert they trust. With over 20 years in Fort Bend County and a calm, strategic approach, she helps families choose the option that protects their finances, reduces stress, and keeps their timeline on track.
Shelley understands the pressures that come with coordinating two major moves at once. Many of her clients are move-up buyers in their 40s–60s who want a smooth transition without juggling two mortgages. She walks them through each scenario; including market conditions, inventory levels, temporary housing options, and how long their home is likely to take to sell based on neighborhood trends. Sellers say she provides clarity right away because she explains each path in simple terms and helps them understand what fits their lifestyle and comfort level.
Her hands-on style makes the entire process easier. Shelley’s prep, staging, and marketing system often helps homes sell faster and at stronger prices, which gives clients more flexibility when choosing their next home. She is also known for staying on top of communication with lenders, agents, and buyers, helping keep both transactions aligned. Clients say her guidance eliminates the guesswork and gives them confidence as they plan their move.
One seller shared that Shelley helped them sell and buy almost simultaneously, noting that her understanding of timing and market conditions “was a true asset” in reaching their goals.
Proof from clients: “She was always on top of our needs and desires and made everything easier for us along the way.”
