Is it a good idea to move in these times?

Ok, just Saturday two halfway homes have just opened up in my neighbor hood, one right next door to me, and another right across the street facing the one on my side of the stree. My mom is scared, and wants to move. We've been lving in the same neighbor hood since 1989(when I was just born) and family and friends are around here.

But my question is, is it a good idea/time to move in these financial times? My mom, dad and sister all have steady well paying jobs, while I go to college. My said we could move, the money isn't a problem, but I said other wise. Also I just started school.

This is THE best time to move if you can. This is a buyers market that hasnen't been seen in a long time.

It will be great if you're a first time buyer.

This is true.

I mean no, we payed off our current home a long time ago, it needs little fixing up and we can sell it or not. Depends, but it's going to be hard to sell it with two house full of drug addicts that just moved into the block.

Why would your mom want to move just because houses are going up for sale? If your neighborhood starts putting houses up for sale, the less likely the would be to all sell. Not many people are buying right now, so moving for the sake of it doesn't seem like it would be smart.spazzx625

[QUOTE="DazedDarkness"][QUOTE="Pirate700"]As long as your mom can swing getting the new house and hold off on selling the old one till the market improves, you are golden.

Then yes. Enjoy your new home. :)

And the thing about it is that It makes me nervous, and depresses me even more. Since I already have a nervous and depression problem.

If there's a better job somewhere else-go ahead. (wish I could) Also you say that you're going to college, Well that kind of makes you officially 'out of the nest" so your choice about the house/home -which you won't be staying in much longer- is probably going to be less.
