You can make your offer contingent on selling your old house (or on an inspection, or anything else you want). Sellers are also free to not accept such offers.

You can make your offer contingent on selling your old house (or on an inspection, or anything else you want). Sellers are also free to not accept such offers. Both of my house purchases were from submitting a no financing contingency offer with significant earnest money, and I think that helped me win both bids.

My last offer I went even further and added a note "I know both the roof and HVAC are old and ruined, I will not ask for either to be fixed as part of closing" and I won the house despite not being the highest bid.
