About this episode

Think back to when you were a kid- can you remember an instance where you asked your parents a question, and instead of explaining the actual answer, they just said “Because I said so”. How frustrating! Or maybe in middle school you were horrified to even be seen with your folks in public because of something they were wearing. You’d say to yourself “I’m never going to be like parents!”. Well that was us to a T, and we always thought we’d be intown city dwellers. Well times have changed and so we’ll share why it is that we’re moving (yes… both of our families!), but we realized this is also an incredibly relevant topic for a lot of folks out there. Of course housing is everyone’s top expense, but there are many reasons why moving is top of mind for a large percentage of Americans. Listen as we discuss a healthy framework and factors to consider when you’re debating a move. Not only financial considerations like cost of living and increasing your earning potential, but also lifestyle considerations like relationships and schools. And we’ll also leave you with a few tips to help ensure you’re making this move without breaking the bank.
