Homeowners in these two markets will now be able to work with an Orchard agent who can recommend which of Orchard's unique solutions works best for their situation – whether that's buying their new home before they sell, a cash offer with market upside, or a traditional listing."Orchard enables homeowners to meet their goals and get the best sale outcome," says Court Cunningham, CEO and Founder of Orchard. "Whether customers want a quick sale, need cash for a down payment now, don't want to list the home while they're living in it, want the best price on their home sale, or something else – Orchard can make that happen for them."Customers who work with an Orchard agent have a range of options in addition to listing traditionally. For customers who want to buy before they sell, Orchard's Move First program advances them equity from their current home, allows them to make a non-contingent offer, use their equity for the down payment, move once, then sell their old home on market. For customers who value a fast sale, Orchard offers cash offer programs that allow customers to sell now, then receive any additional proceeds once the home sells on market later."At Orchard, we take great local agents and supercharge them with our unique offerings, allowing them to help customers achieve outcomes they couldn't otherwise," adds Cunningham
