We were the fastest growing county in the country last year. So, prices went up pretty good. We were lucky to have bought into our current house a few months before it started going up. Now, the market's pretty tight and has corrected itself quite a bit. Right now, it's hard to sell a house just about anywhere in the country.dbackdadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10700991588554336491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10882105.post-76505334540017732272007-04-27T06:54:00.000-07:002007-04-27T06:54:00.000-07:00That would be swell.

Thankfully, we know that Cali is the most expensive state to live in and so if we ever do want to buy again, we can just go to another state. How's the market where you're at?<BR/>:)Sadie Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07362158642491145353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10882105.post-12123093892425849262007-04-25T11:40:00.000-07:002007-04-25T11:40:00.000-07:00I am so sorry that you guys are having trouble wit...I am so sorry that you guys are having trouble with the houses. They always talk about the joy of home ownership but they forget to mention the headaches. Having a healthy attitude and great family (like you do), you will survive anything. If you ever need anything (and I really mean that), let us know.<BR/><BR/>One of these days, I would really like for us to meet you guys. Maybe one of these trips to Cali will take us to the northern part sometime. It looks like you guys really live in an awesome area. Being the tree hugger that I am, there would be no shortage of things to do up there.dbackdadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10700991588554336491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10882105.post-49785736937199594642007-04-25T07:33:00.000-07:002007-04-25T07:33:00.000-07:00What a timely post, dback.

We're in trouble but we haven't lost hope: The hope is--we don't need to be house rich to be happy and home ownership does not define our success.<BR/>We just learned this.<BR/>:)<BR/>I'll keep everyone updated but we're probably going to have to get out of dodge soon...in other words--we played the real estate game and we lost our butts.Sadie Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07362158642491145353noreply@blogger.com
