  • I’m excited about my upcoming renovation projects
  • My home is perfectly suited to meet my needs
  • I scored the lowest mortgage rate – and I’m not about to give it up!
  • “My spouse’ll divorce me if I bring up moving again!”

…or should I go?

  • My house gets in the way of my fun
  • I’m the only one left in my book club
  • My kids have moved into homes of their own
  • The cold, dark winters are starting to get to me…
  • I want to be closer to my grandkids while they still like me!
  • I don’t know when my house got so big
  • I don’t want to renovate, but my house needs it
  • I’ve always dreamed of living…
  • I wish my lawn would mow itself!
  • I stopped entertaining because I’m tired of people asking when my renovation is starting
  • I stopped entertaining because I’m tired of my roof leaking while my guests are here
  • I stopped entertaining because I’m tired of people opening my kitchen cabinet and the door falling off the hinges
