The Sanity Squad members all live very far apart from each other. Geography is not what unites us---ideology, friendship, and technology does. No Mark, we are planning a return.

There’s a good chance real estate has further to go south. Don’t hurry with your decisions. New England is so expensive. There’s a good chance real estate has further to go south.

It takes guts in a world that (wrongly)demands certainy. You know what they say about getting rid of all our accumulated stuff: three moves are as good as a fire...I take it to mean be an encouragement to keep simplifying and lightning up. Hope you enjoy this process and do keep us posted. How courageous of you, Neo, to be willing to make this move before knowing exactly where you’re going.

We did much the same, waited for an accepted offer on our house before seriously looking for a new house. Of course, with the internet, we had already narrowed down our search, to the general area, and size of house/land we wanted. With our 2nd Realtor we sold in 7 weeks, and found our new house the weekend following the accepted offer. We moved into our new house 2 weekends ago, and last night we made our first big accomplishment, we unpacked all the boxes for the kitchen and dining room. I would say, our garden was the hardest thing to part with, 2nd would be the garage. But, now we've got plenty of room (2 acres) for building both of those new. Bigger, and better for both. Congratulations on your sale.

Enjoy the process of looking for a new place. Great blog, I have not visited for a while ... always something to learn, reflect upon.
