Chad and I have decided to sell our house. We absolutely love the floor plan of our house and only bought it in August 2014 but have always been on the fence about the neighborhood. I'm not saying anything bad about the neighborhood at all, it is nice and a great place to raise a family! It just isn't a good fit for us.
We were so happy when we found this house and won the bidding war, we wanted to get settled into a house before Grace started middle school. Due to that circumstance we feel like we rushed and settled a little and now want to remedy that. I don't have an actual timeline of when things will happen yet. It could all happen in a couple of months or a little over a year. We literally decided to sell yesterday. We have a lot of factors to decide for selling and buying, mainly being where we will go next. I have decided that regardless we will stay somewhat close, I will not change my children's schools. We love the schools and the faculty and our kids are happy where they attend, we won't make them change again.
I'm just starting to do my own bits of research but I'm really leaning toward building again. I would love a smaller, one story house. I have a vision of what I want and building is pretty much the only way to get that. Plus this way I will not get in a bidding war in such a tight real estate market and I will not be rushed.
I'm very excited but exhausted already about thinking about it all! I'm so thankful that Chad 100% supports how I feel and is pushing me to do what will make me the happiest. :)
Time to continue my research to buy house #4!
Until next time, count your blessings! :)

You better not go very far! :)

WOW! Congrats and best of luck to you :-)
ReplyDeleteI totally understand wanting a one story. I've been in a two story for most of my life and the thought (and convenience) of having everything on one floor, but spread out, is tempting B)
