Should You Keep Your Old Home? The Financial Case for Selling vs. Renting

It's just should we hire professional movers, use a service like pods or U-Haul, or we also consider just selling a lot of our belongings and starting fresh. I did get a quote from a few of these options, but I'm just curious if anyone else on the call has an idea for where should we start in terms of physically getting a four or five bedroom house with two small children 2,000 miles away.

No, not gotten that far. I don't know if it comes across on the call, but feng shui is not in my vocabulary. That is not something that I think about. My wife, definitely I could see her once we find a place to live, realizing that, yeah, the couch or, yeah, a large piece of furniture just doesn't fit. So this is helpful feedback.

I do think there's maybe an argument to sell and start fresh once we see what we need. Really just bringing the basics, I feel like, would really make this a lot easier.

I did reach out to pods. I did get a quote from them for one of their largest containers. I haven't looked into U-Hauls or professional movers yet, but I feel like the pods or the U-Haul option is going to be the least expensive. So yes, I have started that process. But again, just taking that next step is daunting.

I hadn't considered that. That's great advice, Lisa. Thank you. Yeah, that would obviously make it way easier if we didn't have to sell anything and can maybe just charge a little bit extra giving them a fully furnished house.

Yeah, at this point, it's really just waiting to see if the job offer I'm looking for ends up coming through from the state we're looking to move to. So that's really where we're at. The timing as a school teacher, this is where we're entering kind of the time of the year when staff starts letting administrators know whether or not they plan to return.

So I'm kind of just playing the waiting game right now to see if this works out. But I know if it does, we're going to have to be frantically planning the move. So I really appreciate this advice.
