    This is precisely what we did last year. We sold our 3300 sqft house, got rid of our junk, and moved into a 2000 sqft house in a town with lower property taxes and cost of living. By doing so, we banked substantial funds, augmenting our retirement accounts. Getting rid of all the junk was the most challenging part, but once you're done, it is liberating.

      Homestead exemption should also be adjusted for inflation. Then if you sell your homesteaded property and buy another property as your homestead you could take the inflation adjusted homestead exemption amount to your new homestead. There is a homestead portability that allows the difference between the market value and assessed value of the house you are selling to reduce the assessed value of the home you purchase.

    Great Vid Jerry! 2 thumbs up! We live in our current house of 29yrs (long Island) and we are empty nesters (62yrs old). Our house is worth high 7's, taxes 8k. We owe 75k on a Heloc and that's it. We are looking to downsize and move closer to family in NJ or upstate. The thing is housing around where we want to go is also high in price. So, it's hard to downsize to a lesser value property.

    Jerry, are you finding any people that are buying a tract of raw land and working on clearing out, drilling a well, and septic over a couple of years, then getting an affordable trailer, then possibly replacing with a modular? Being 52, and not wanting a 300k plus mortgage at these rates, I believe in smaller and affordable, but working on projects as I work towards the move. I have had to change my plans due to the economy, but I enjoy South Carolina and consider you at the pulse of these issues. Trailers, interesting modern small homes, or modest Modular’s are much more affordable, and give me the peace and solitude. Thank you

    Typically the nicer neighborhoods with more expensive houses come with lower crime, better schools, nicer commerce nearby, better roads and more educated, altruistic neighbors.
    Sure, find a good deal and leave below your means, but also keep in mind where you choose to live is going to impact the type of environment and people your kids will be influenced by!

    So if you're living in, let's say, a 500k home that 2 years ago you paid 300k for at 3 percent. If I understand right, I should take, let's say, 200k equity, go buy less house, at the higher price and pay the same effective tax rate and finance at 7 percent, but I'll be moving to a better neighborhood for less money? If you consider moving cost, loan fees, and higher rax rate due to current taxable values, perhaps you can clarify how one benefits. With all due respect to your presentation, I can not get the total everything considered numbers to work. I'd rather be "trapped" in a nice home than trying to downsize in a market like this. Within this "trap," they can only raise taxes 3 percent a year. If, for example, you're paying 7k a year in property tax, but the guy who just bought the home a few houses down is paying 20k, the trap has some benefits. I'm not trying to be argumentative, but the knife cuts both ways. Florida will probably never be the bargain that it once was, and some are leaving because of that, I get it. Funny how when New York, California, Massachusetts became expensive to live in, it was worth it, but Fla is somehow not worth it?
