Leslie and I finally got the “For Sale” sign in our yard yesterday. It was an exciting time and we even hopped in the car to drive around the neighborhood to see how it looked from each direction. The last few days we have been working on getting our house ready to show and have been working to the wee hours of the morning. It was nice though to finally see it all come together. Hopefully things will work out and we will get it sold relatively quickly.
It has been a good first house for us and we hate to leave it, but NYC is calling and it’s almost time for us to go. When you turn a page in your book of life, it is always a good time for reflection. We are not only turning a page but reaching the end of a chapter. Making such a big move is exciting, as we are ready to start that next chapter and see what all it has in store for us. At the same time, we are ending another chapter and of corse there are emotions that go with that as well. In the end, that is just all apart of life. You finish one thing and start another.
Here is a pic of our house…

Don’t do it! I have been up here for 8 years and have been trying to get back for 7 1/2. This place will trap you. Also, say goodbye to that nice house you have because you are not going to get anything near as nice for the money you get for it.
My wife and I have been looking at apartments in Manhattan. Rent on a 1 bedroom is about double our mortgage on our 1600 square foot house. We are aware of the price that we will be paying, but we think it will be worth it to live in NY for a few years.
What keeps you in the city?
