Summary answer: If you can start the process 10–12 weeks before your report date, you have a realistic shot at closing before you leave — Woodbridge's moderate 48-day average time on market gives you reasonable room, though you'll still need 4–6 weeks from contract to closing on top of that.
I'm Johnny with JQ Real Estate. Here's how to actually plan this out.
A realistic timeline working backward from your report date
| Milestone | Time Before Report Date |
|---|---|
| List the home | 12–14+ weeks |
| Go under contract | 10–12 weeks |
| Close | 4–6 weeks after contract |
What if your timeline is tighter than this?
- Rent-back arrangement
- Remote closing
