We own our home but I'm ready to downsize but hubby not ready yet.  It's always work to do in the house and in the yard.

We own but we are looking for a smaller house as well. A house or condo with one floor would be perfect for us.

I own my house outright and my two sons and I are also looking for a bigger house so everyone can spread out and have their own space and privacy for one thing.  We want to be in a rural area don't want HOA or to have a house right on top of someone else.  We are in a good spot like that now but we definitely need more room.

We own. I have had a mortgage since I was nineteen years old when I bought my first duplex. My wife had always rented so, in order to make her transition to ownership easier, I sold the first duplex in order to put a large down payment on a home that my wife and I had built. By building I figured that she could create anything she wanted. I furrowed my brow when she decided on white carpeting knowing that we were going to get a dog and wanted to have two children. She did not make the same mistake with the second house. I had purchased, fixed up and sold several other duplexes but had one (out of state) that sat vacant/couldn't be sold for several years. Was so happy to finally get rid of that one. I am pretty much down to just one house unless I find a deal that is too good to pass up.

We own, been in this house for 18 years now, I wish we could get a bigger place now that I have grand kids living with us, but it will do for now.
