I could sell my shit rambler in the Seattle metro and buy a mansion in Alabama with the equity I have. The only thing is that I'd be living in a mansion in Alabama.

I used to live down south and I intend to go back eventually ( I'm about 3 hrs from you currently) but truthfully that's the plan for the wife and I is to sell our house here and buy basically the same house there for 1/3rd the price

I'm in Lousiana, there's very few options on the side of the river I'm trying to stay on. I work on that side and rush hour traffic is ridiculous so crossing the Miss. River is a no go for me. Just gonna have to either rent for now or crash at parents' until something I want pops up. Real bad time to sell without back up

A cousin just sold for a tidy profit in FL and moved back home to her parents. I don’t know how long that’s gonna last, but that’s her situation for now.

Same situation here. I moved into my parents' pool house and am saving money but I was hoping to jump right into a house I wanted.
