1 more after this one maybe. I hope it's not in this one. I want my dream home!

Mumof1andacat · 26/05/2023 18:38

I've only lived in 2 homes. That was the family home (parents still there now) and the house me and my then boyfriend (now dh) bought. There are no plans to move. I'd like to retire to the seaside!

This is my 8th and I imagine (hope) we will be here a long time now. Maybe a smaller one by the sea in retirement?

On my third house, 45 and hopefully not moving again. It needs work but has the potential to be our dream home so spending money on doing it up. It's taking a lot of money, time and effort and I can't see myself ever wanting to leave.

Four houses including the one I live in now.

This will be my final one. Too much stress moving again.

So far

Birth to two
Two - 18
18-23 (9 lots of student digs)
24-27 - London flat
27-36 - Little house
36-37 - lived with boyfriend - disastrous 😂
37-46 - Cottage
46-47 - ex-dp's horrible house
47-48 - temp flat
48-59 - our current house

That's 18. I plan to stay here for another three years. Then retire, and downsize, making 19. But old age is hard to predict. My dm managed to live independently until about two weeks before the end. Hopefully I can manage the same. 🙂

AuntieMarys · 26/05/2023 19:29

I've lived in 14. Possibly 1 more

Pebbles16 · 26/05/2023 19:34

I am on house number eight. Planning to move abroad so I would think a rental (to see if we like it as much as we think we do) and then a purchase. So 10. DH is only on his fourth though (and nearly 50)

Jinglybangly · 26/05/2023 19:47

Family home as a child
2 student houses
Flat with DP
Our family home

So in number 5 now. Can't see us leaving until the children have flown the nest. Maybe we'll downsize then.

RoseRobot · 26/05/2023 19:49

One more, maybe two, long term, but might work abroad for a year in retirement.

I think I'm currently on my 14th home - maybe more - I moved around a lot in my early twenties.
