Will the house appraise for that much or do they have cash? You will need to consider the cost of moving and closing on another house too.

FFX county is huge so why don't you just say which town. It's not like you are providing the street.

It is very tempting, but how would your replace it? After taxes, ect? I have seen people do this and regret.

sounds like the market is getting toppy again.
Me, I'd take it and not think twice!!
This assumes of course you can move into something else accepatble to you with the proceeds or less - but you knew that already.

The profit is $550,000. I'd sell in a hot second and rent until I found what I wanted.


You would have to give 35% of that to obama so its a lot less

Yes, she would have to send a personal check to Obama... FFS

We bought for $1.05 Sept 2009...we were assessed for sale at 1.4 mill. We are thinking of cashing in--mainly because we might leave the area. ??--would u be able to afford something else? I couldn't afford my neighborhood now.

Don't do it. Like the others have said, your capital gain taxes would kill most of your "profit." If it truly is worth that (doubtful) then just sit for the 2 years so you can claim your 500k.

If you could find a house you like better, why not?

Unless your mortgage is close to nothing b/c you put down a hefty down payment and paid down principal, you won't make out that well.

Now if you're telling me you put down 50-75%, then I'd say hell yeah, go for it!
