My wife and I are thinking of selling our home. The house has almost doubled in value in the last 5 years. My son is moving out after he graduates. So we don't have any one but us and I he two dogs.
Knowing we want to move out of state in 3-7 years.
Option 1:
Keep the house and keep on with small projects to get it where we want it.
Option 2:
Sell the house and buy a big enough trailer for us and the dogs. Find a piece of property and put a slab on it. Get a connex for our stuff so we don't pay storage fees.
Have a little travel trailer paradise for a few years.
If we keep the house the
If the Market tanks then we have to stay till it rebounds. Way longer then we want to be in this state. Or it holds and we make way more then I could have imagined when we do jump out of this place.
If we sell. Take the 290k after selling fees and crap. Buy a trailer. Buy a piece of property and improve it. Now we are back to zero $ in the bank for the next place we want to go. But no living expenses except utilities.
Why not rent? Bc our mortgage is less then renting and finding a place that takes two big dogs is expensive and a good place with space would be insane to find now.
