I bought my house in 2000 for $160k. I'd get $325k or more now. But I can't realize that gain.

I'd like to move, but I can't figure out where to go. My problem is I do not want to drive an hour to work. I did that and hated it. The cost of fuel & maintenance probably would offset a tax reduction. It is all starting to bother me.

I just want a little bigger house with a big detached garage. In a good school district. Damn. Too much to ask?

Barring some way-out event (crazy terrorism, sudden end of oil, etc.), I do not believe housing proces in our area will drop. Level off, perhaps, but a widescale decline? I don't think so. They don't make land anymore.

What is a family to do?
