RE: The fear of missing house
We have looked at similar "move in ready" places that are about 75% higher in price without having as many of the benefits. Good location, low traffic, parks, close to lake, close to shopping, good public transport, schools etc. I think that byt the time we sell (if we sell), it would be well positioned in the area as a larger renovated home, without being excessively expensive. The alternative would be apartment living for a higher price or a large shift up 50% again. Plus, I think we can make it pretty :)

That's what my wife and I did on the homes we bought and sold, get something that needs a little work, make it pretty, and by then it is time to move again. I've moved way to much in my life, and I hope our next move will be the last. It would be nice to watch a tree grow.
This is part of why we want to get into a house now. Perhaps our daughter can't plant a tree, but I think I am too old to see it mature :)
