But then I have only one place. I like the idea of leaving my first place alone, so if the second place goes tits up I still have the first place as a roof over my head. Plus I'm looking elsewhere, so I'd have two places in two locations if needed.
My place has doubled in value since I bought it but so has everything else so that's kind of irrelevant. If I find a place to buy that requires the selling of my current place then I'm locked in to waiting for some dickhead buyer and all that nonsense. I'm more inclined to buy a second place and pay it off while leaving the first alone. I guess then it's two smaller places rather than one big place but the risk is less right. I dunno
Yeah I don’t think you know. But fortunately for you, I did pretty much exactly what you are thinking of ten years ago so I’ve done all the learning for you!
Just sell it. Find a buyer before you look for the new gaff. Buy a baller house. Don’t look back.
