[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Typical boomers. Want top dollar for the home they're in now, but want to land somewhere nice and cheap.[/quote]

Typical GenZ/X/Y - want to land somewhere nice, but it also has to be cheap. [/quote]

Not true - most of my millennial friends bought in expensive areas because we value location over mcmansions[/quote]

I’m a millennial who bought a smallish ranch in a very desirable area.  Could have bought a McMansion even 10-15 minute drive away, but I rather be able to walk and bike places and be by good schools. It’s not as close in as I originally wanted (takes me a bit longer to bike or walk somewhere) but I’m super happy now and have a bigger yard.  I worked hard and decided I wanted location over anything else.  I have friends who decided they wanted 3500-4000 square feet over my 2000 so they moved out more and have to drive everywhere.  Some prefer it, some don’t.

OP you gotta decide what you want over anything else.  Location? Space? Being by healthcare? Speak to a financial advisor or do a little more looking or look a little farther out.

Look at lake properties, look at places that are easily accessible to healthcare, stores, etc.  Have you looked at 55+ communities?  [/quote]
