[quote=Anonymous]Xennial here. Bought our first and only home at 35. We bought a home big enough that we would never “outgrow.” (i too hate the term forever home but yes it does apply to my thinking). Why? Because we are tired. We moved every year in college. We moved for grad schools. We moved in together! We moved across the country - twice - for job opportunities. All of this always as renters, which was fine. Divorced parents - no family home where all of my childhood stuff remains. No financial help or gifted downpayment from family. We were encouraged to move for opportunity as young people, and we did, again and again. And at 35, we bought, and we bought with the goal/intention/hope of never moving again. It’s been a decade, zero regrets and still zero desire to move. I have no HGTV fantasies. Buying a “starter” home with the intention to sell and buy again in 5 yrs. would have been exhausting. I love this house and I love not moving and will never leave. [/quote]
