There are two ways of looking at the current real estate market.
1. The attitude: "I want top dollar and I'm not giving my house away". This means you will stay where you are, indefinitely.
2. The attitude: "I'm willing to sell at market value". This means you will sell and be free to spread your wings and soar into the next phase of your life.
I think as seniors, while we have good health, we need to try to realize our dreams. Make hay while the sun shines!

What you say is TRUE..... but I just can't get over the fact that I purchased my Oregon Dream Home for $cash$ and now the market value is $100k less than my investment
How many people would take that loss ?
Money vs. Lifestyle ......... I'd like to say I would choose lifestyle but then again ~ the option is alive but not now.
