[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To have the luxury to not worry about 100s of thousands of dollars…..lol.  Love it.[/quote]

Omg, so dramatic.

You don't lose 100s of thousands in cash when your property value goes down. Your mortgage stays the same. You have food and shelter and so much more. Good lord. [/quote]

Oof.  The lack of economic sense is a sight to behold, as is the twisting of words.  Of course you have less money if your property value declines.  It happens when you sell your house.[/quote]

Yes, when you sell your house and your property value has gone down, you won't make as much money. That is the reality of property ownership. No property carries with it a guarantee of maintaining its value. You'll learn when you are all grown up and have a mortgage yourself.[/quote]

And some of us need that money to send kids to college.  We aren’t like you, who can afford otherwise.[/quote]

Ok, I'm confused.  So, you overspent on a house to get away from some of us, and then you cannot afford college.  Sounds like a you problem.  We bought a house we can afford and stayed so we can save and afford college, and have the house paid off before college.  Would we like a big fancy house?  Not sure, but I don't want the upkeep, maintenance, property taxes or stress.  What you have.  You cannot complain when you aren't willing to make the sacrifices.[/quote]

what?  I overspent on a house because the market sucks right now.  I moved from DC to get away from regualry shootings in my neighborhood and don't at all have a fancy house.  I put everything I have into it because I wanted my kid to feel safe and to be able to walk to school without that concern.  [/quote]

Plenty of places in MoCo are safe and aren't so expensive that you will lose "100s of thousands" because of a change in school boundaries[/quote]

You can actually map the school boundary lines in zillow and redfin by the house prices.  I don't know if they are hundreds of thousands, but the distinction is pretty noticeable.[/quote]

This is going to blow your mind - you could have bought in the cheaper area (cheaper because of the schools) if you wanted. Not because you were prescient, but because those cheaper areas are lovely safe places to live, and because diversity is important to you. The bonus is you'd have money left over to save for college.[/quote]
