Upscale outskirts of smaller city

Now all you have to do to lock in your gains is spend tens of thousands of dollars and countless days/hours of stress selling your house. Otherwise, its just the same pos house it was when you bought it. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2267436&forum_id=2#23284419) |

Date: May 28th, 2013 1:38 PM Author: Orange home codepig wtf? No.
Admittedly agents are expensive as fuck. My seller did for sale by owner, I think that might be underrated in markets like mine. I'd be tempted to try it but my agent would be mad as fuck at me.
Anyway I'm not interested in selling at all. I'm enjoying home ownership and my particular home so fucking much. It's just nice to know that values are going up. |

Sorry, breh... |

Date: June 10th, 2013 3:39 PM Author: Mind-boggling sadistic selfie You have no idea what your house is worth at this moment. At best you could establish a range of probable values based on recent comps in your area. Unlike stocks, there is no instant market for your house, and you have no idea what it would bring on the market until you list it.
But enjoy your paper profit now while it lasts. When interest rates shoot up over the next three years, I guarantee your home will depreciate in value as borrowing costs cool demand. |
