Would you consider the home you live in now your forever home?
Ours ideally isn't. We only have 1 LO and we are all ready running out of space!
-
Nope, it's 2 bdrm plus den, but no basement, and it's a stacked town home, so there are people on 3 sides and above us.
-
Nope! We bought our current home with the intentions of it being a starter home.
-
Yup!!! Only reason why we're spending so much time & money gutting and renovating! Plan to raise our family here.
-
No, we will need to get a larger home one day.
-
Yup. This is it.
-
Nope. It's nice and we built it but its about 1600 square feet so we will eventually grow out of it. It's fine for now though!
-
Yup! It's large enough for 3 kidos, has an acre of land, and is in a very desirable neighborhood just 2 minutes outside the city. I can't wait to get all the 70's out of it though!
-
No, we're in our starter home. We're in the process of getting it ready to sell and finding our forever home.
-
No, this is a starter home and we plan on moving again when our family outgrows it.
-
@Mrsjets: Wow that amount of land sounds heavenly! Sadly we will probably never have that kind of space if we stay in our area.
-
I think so but circumstances can change....more kids, in laws moving in, etc!
-
I'm not sure! We just built our house and I love it, but forever is a long time.
-
Nope. We'll be moving to our forever home in less than a year though!
-
@Boogs: yes it really is! Except in autumn when all the leaves fall
Would you ever consider moving a little further from your neighborhood for some extra land?
-
Definitely not. We are renting a 2 bedroom condo that we will definitely outgrow in a few years, but that was the intention.
DH doesn't really like the idea of a forever home-- he feels like we should have the nicest home we can afford, even if it means moving. I tend to disagree, I'd rather have a home that is good enough and we can make our own. So,... we'll see where that goes!
-
@autumnlove: Very true!
@Pepper: Good point, it can be.
@chopsuey119: So soon, how exciting!
-
I certainly hope not, but it wouldn't be awful.
-
Probably not. We'd like to have some more land one day.
-
Yup, it's our first and forever. 2700 sf + 400 finished basement, 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath on 2 flat acres. We just need a kid or two to fill it!
-
@PurplePumps: Wow that sounds fabulous!
-
No! Way too small.
-
definitely not. i hope our next home will be our forever home, but who knows!
-
@Mrsjets: We talk a lot about that. Traffic is pretty horrific around here so we worry about commute times. So it's more space/less time at home vs less space/more time at home...we keep going back and forth on what the right thing to do is. Plus we are so close to family and we see them a lot so we aren't sure if we want to give that up either.
-
Nope. Our two bedroom, two and a half bathroom townhouse is perfect for just the two of us now though. We hope to get into our bigger, forever home in the next couple of years. Ideally, a four or five bedroom, three bathroom house.
-
Yes, unless we win the lottery!
We're in a 3000sf, 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath. I'd like to finish the basement for some extra space and update one of the bathrooms, but that's about it.
-
Not at all, and we knew that when buying it. It was our starter home. Next home will hopefully be out forever home.
-
We rent, so no. But when we do buy a house we both agree we'd love to be able to buy our forever home, so we'll see what happens!
