We just moved from our "forever house". When we built it 13 years ago, if you would have told me we would sell it, I would have called you crazy.
But what seemed like the perfect house with a baby and a three year old, was way too much house once the kids were older and never around and once I got older and tireder and hated fricking cleaning a bunch of rooms we never used.
We went from a 5,000 sq. ft. new house in a mcmansion type neighborhood to 3,500 sq. ft. 100+ year old house in our historic district downtown and I could not be happier but 13 years ago, I never would have thought we would do that.
Never plan on "certainties" for the basis of a huge investment. Life has a way of changing things up.
