Hi, I have been wondering about moving for a while and could do with some opinions.
We live in a house dp semi inherited (mortgage to buy family out which is paid off in 6 yrs). It's a 4 bed on a fab estate- the estate was built in the 70's so spacious- annual fees for exclusive residents bar, swimming pool, tennis, park, squash and pre school.
Our house is a mews and has a garden (paved stone) and balcony on bedroom.
Now I do like the house but to be honest I'm getting itchy feet because;
Due to extension we are at the top of our price bracket for this house so any work we do won't add value
We will need a new kitchen and bathroom soon
I don't like being able to hear our neighbours ( they are nice though)
Want a bigger garden
Currently my Dp has a long commute - 1 hour each way
Schools are good though
We are about to have dd 2 (38+5) and we want 3 or 4 .
My question is this- is it better to move earlier and pay off the mortgage quicker, is it worth moving for these reasons? We also have to cash in 18k worth of shares in the next year which could see us virtually mortgage free- this could help us move?
