I'm really hopeful that this will be the last cycle of this nonsense, but who knows? We're going to try to take advantage of this next housing crisis to get set-up in our ideal situation.

By moving into a very affordable house in a depressed market that has all the amenities we're looking for.

It sure is. My wife's been doing a lot of online house hunting and research into different areas. We have a bunch of candidates in mind, but we're still waiting for prices to drop.

Price drop and everything has to be right. Especially if you are moving from a house you have lived in a long time.

No we've only been here a few years and there are several things we'd be happy to change.

Are you part of an HOA? I heard those are despicable.

Yeah. The neighborhood we moved from had lots of unkempt yards and cars parked all along the streets. We thought it would be nice to have some mutually agreed upon tidiness, and it is.
The part I don't like is that we have to get permission anytime we want to plant something new in our yard and we aren't allowed to have chickens. It's also just a bigger house than we need.
