I've been in my house for 2 years..

and now we are thinking of moving...has anyone done this? I feel kinda guilty bc we havent been there long....i feel like my parents will yell at me

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

I dont think anything is wrong with that. what about it makes you want to move, like this you fixed it up, lived in it and realized what u really want anyhow

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

Nope, nothing wrong with that! =)

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

I don't think that's bad at all. We've been in our house for 1 year and we know already that we want to move. I think when you are first time homeowners you don't necessarily know EVERYTHING that you want in a home.

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

nothing wrong at all! but you know moving is a PITA right?
why are you guys thinking of moving? the area? bigger house?

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

Nothing wrong with that, we anticipated doing the same thing

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

There's nothing wrong with it! I think about it all the time. My advice is to move before you have kids!! Believe it or not, my 2 1/2 year olds "friends" is one of the things that's keeping us here!

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

nothing wrong with it, i would just run some numbers to get an idea of how much you would lose/gain...

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

We said we were only going to stay for 5 years in this house, and we have been here 2 years and I am itching to move already.

For me, it's the need to always have something exciting going on. Plus we are already outgrowing the space.

You start to want the things that you comprised on, it's normal.

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

Nothing wrong with moving! Our 1st house we said 5 year tops and were out by 4. This house said we said maybe 7 - 10 and here 5 and we love it here so we shall see. Best of luck whatever you decide

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

We closed on our house in April 2004 moved in late May 2004 and we are in contract to sell and buy a new one!!! That's less than 2 years, so I hope that there's nothing wrong with it!

I will say it's stressful and i don't ever want to do this again!!!

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

thanks everyone

we are in central NJ and we are thinking of moving a little further south...

i just feel SO guilty. but no one here talks to us...we are not crazy about where the neighborhood is "going"...and truthfully, i'd like a little more space between my house and the neighbors. dont get me wrong i want neighbors to talk to but right now on both sides of me only 10 feet separates us and the next door house.

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

we plan to be n our 3rd house in the next few years. Before that, we must have lived in at least 5 different apartments. The one good thing, is that you weed what you don't need and get rid of clutter!

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

We have been in our house for about 2 1/2 years and we want to move. We have for awhile now!

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

We will be in our house a year in April and we already started going to open houses. But after seeing what's out there, we decided to stay here longer and put some work into the house. ex: finish the basement, new deck, IGS, etc

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

We've been in our house (living together) 1.5 yrs but DH has been in it 3 yrs and we are thinking of moving also.

Re: I've been in my house for 2 years..

Don't feel bad. Its what you want to do.
