We didn't pay off the bond on this house or on our first one. BECAUSE, you never know, it may be our previous house if we buy a third one. We did pay for both houses, but chose to let the bond ride, so that if we listed it to sell we would not have to include the paid off bond into the price of the house and make the price point more sellable.
We are very satisfied with our home, but ya never know what those people are gonna build next and we may just fall in love with a new floor plan.
I thought that when we bought our first house that it would be our here-'til-we-croak-FROG house but here we are in another one. We have downsized and know how to do that, we just might want to buy one of those sweet patio villas, or a beautiful ranch, or a new designer might catch our fancy. We ain't dead yet, and we may want another home here.
So for now the bond is not paid off on our home.
