Beartrack: *
I'm in the same "seven year" ownership timeframe. *Even if I sell now at $100,000 below what the market "high" was two years ago, a roughly 30% decline here, I will still have lived virtually "rent free" for seven years, had the tax advantage of my low interest mortgage, and have a net appreciation of $100,000 over what I paid and put into the house - even in this "terrible" :yikes: market. I sure give thanks today for that scenario!!
