If the appraisal allows, you can bump the price of the home up, and have the seller contribute that amount at closing. And/or if the seller has enough reserves/equity, you may be able to negoiciate a short-term seller carry-back.
Or like Steve said, you can make the purchase contingent on the sale of your current house. Just make sure that it is worded as "contingent on the SUCCESSFUL Sale & closing" of the current home. Just be careful, and know the seller's intentions/situation up front. It can get tricky if you get in a situation where the new home's owner (seller) is also in your shoes, and needs a contingency to purchase a new home. It can domino to several buyer/sellers, and create a huge cluster.
