[quote=Anonymous]Two kids, our youngest just graduated from college. We are staying in the family home because we still need to work at our jobs and the economics of selling our house don't really make sense unless we are leaving the area. We have a very affordable mortgage. Plus, we live in a small home, so we aren't looking to downsize further--in fact, our cozy home that was great for raising 2 kids in feels too small for the kind of entertaining we do as empty-nesters with adult kids and siblings/friends who visit and stay with us periodically. I'd like a home with a bigger family room and dining area, and another bedroom and bathroom. But we can't afford that in DC. So we are staying right here for the time being. In 4-5 years, when we retire, we'll decide what to do then, based in part on where the kids are. But the default plan is to move to New England, where our older kid and extended family are living.[/quote]
