Now is a really good time to sell, housing market is crazy right now.
I would wait a couple of years to buy though, let the property values go back down.

That's great advice except for one thing. Generally, if you sell, you then need a new place to live, which implies buying sooner rather than later. There are ways around that. But it's a hassle.Now is a really good time to sell, housing market is crazy right now.

That isn't gonna happen either...
I'm trying to get away from people... not invite the entire internet into my daily life.
I honestly don't know what happens from here. But phase one of the plan is done... phase two begins after Monday. That includes working on the house and getting it ready for market. Might also include contacting a realtor in Saskatchewan and have them start putting together a list of places to go look at.
Playing with a dog or walking the dog can be very relaxing. Gives you time to think.So... it is finalized. Sold on the 22nd. Still a bunch of things to actually do... like the last cycle of payroll... royalty payment... and I also have to go fix the floor tiles under the three comp sink and fix a light fixture and vent in the bathroom... and give it a coat of paint. Then we wait for the security deposits and final rebates to come in.
I'm actually saddened... terrified... and excited all at the same time. Crazy times for sure.
I had told my neighbor a couple years ago what out plans were... and that we were moving back to Michigan. They expressed interest in buying our house when the plan came together. I talked to him early in the week and said that my pizzeria sold and the house was next. They have already contacted a realtor and their house will be on the market in the next few days. They don't want us to list our house because they want it. They don't even want us to paint or do carpet... nothing. They would rather do it their way. So that is exciting... but it terrifies me too. The last thing I want to do is buy our new place under pressure... and needing to have somewhere to move to. I'm thinking I'm going to have to buy a smaller cabin with no acreage that is cheap to have a home while I look for the forever place. Maybe it will become an income property in the future.
I'm not even ready to talk about capitol gains taxes... It's enough that I could pay cash for a New Black Diamond Sasquatch Bronco. WTF!?!?!
Also my lovely wife figured that because I'm now semi retired... we need a puppy. So we have a new boxer puppy coming to our family this weekend. Maybe it will be a good stress reliever... cause I'm am F-in stressed out!
The great state of Tennessee. I like the way that sounds haha. It's pretty nice here. Belt buckle of the bible belt so not for everyone but I love living here. But it does get hot and humid in the summer months but wouldn't want to live anywhere else.You know you've done messed up when liberals are leaving in droves. Sorry to hear about your close association with an apparent psychopath and you needing to sell off your hard work but with Cook county, it's some thing that has been a long time coming. Let alone the State. PA is working hard to follow the same path and I plan on getting as soon as I'm eligible for retirement. The fine State of Tennessee is looking real good at the moment to me. Far enough south to take the edge of winter temps but not bake in the festering, humid heat of the deep south in the summer.
