Are you being held prisoner by a home that’s too small, too big or just not where you want to be? We moved a client a while back who described their living situation as “being held prisoner by their home and not pursuing the rest of their life’s dreams”. They ultimately refused to be held prisoner, sold that home and now are very happy with the new home they bought and they got that home for a great price.
This is definitely a market that favors buyers. Sellers are not realizing the gains of two years ago. If you want to relocate consider the following, you’ll get less than you would have two years ago….you’ll also spend less on the new home you buy. Most importantly, you’ll move on with your life’s dreams and not be held prisoner by your existing home. Just imagine that the current home you live in now is in the past and you are settled into that new dream home. That will help you get through this challenging yet rewarding move. One last question, how much are you willing to pay to stay in a depreciating asset?
