请前辈们指点 - 没有读懂的关于settlement 的一句话

mesogirl

读到关于settlement的一段话 (原文如下) -

Being flexible over settlement can cut the price

Some vendors need a quick settlement because they have bought another place and don't want to have to move twice, or put their furniture into storage.

Others will want a longer settlement because they are looking to buy.
"If the vendor is going to need bridging finance to pay for their new house, then this can be worth a discount"

有一点不明白的是 - 如果vendor又在别处买了新房, 为何买家settlement晚些时间的话会导致vendor搬家两次? vendor晚些搬进新家 (就是说等到房子settlement之是再搬进他买的新家)不就可以了吗？　为何要have to move twice, or put furniture into storage?
偶很迷茫．．．
请前辈们指点迷津!感激涕零！

Does not make sense to me

我可以理解vendor如果已经买好别处的房子，并且也很快就要settle的话，他当然希望自己原来的房子也很快卖掉settle，不用两边付贷款利息，至于说搬２次家之类的，我也看不懂。

对,没错,我也是这样理解滴. 谢谢patrick!
那一段话是在newspaper上读的,domain上也有同样的一段话. 真是奇了怪啦

it should be understood like this: the vendor can't move in to his new house before selling the existing one, which means he needs to rent for a while before settling with the buyer. quick settling is a big advantage to vendor offered by the purchaser.
