Deciding whether to stay in your current home or to sell it and look for a new one is tough. So tough in fact, that there is at least one reality television show about it!
If you’re struggling to make that decision, here are some tips that can help you decide if you should stay or sell:
Find out the current market value of your home. This will give you a clear idea of how much your property is likely to sell for in today’s market.
Find out how much you can afford to invest in a new home. This is calculated, in part, by how much of a mortgage you qualify to receive.
Determine whether your current home still suits your needs. Do you need to move up to a larger place? Downsize to a smaller property?
Figure out whether this is the right time to move to a neighbourhood that you’ve always dreamed of living in.
Assess whether your neighbourhood has changed in a way that you don’t like.
Decide whether you are still happy where you live. Is it time for a change?
