One time too many, on having a house payment, of not being able to attend the too big house, of my working on farm or something all the time etc etc so over the last few weeks have been working with a neighbor as to sale of our place.
Going to try to do this in lifts as the neighbor’s son will be buying house and 38 acres around July
Going to see if he will buy the remaining forty now and give us some fudge room to get the next place bought so can begin the moving phase as can align.
Over the next few months have to accomplish getting the KW physically able to move on its own then shift all operations to the next place paid for up front.
Have been aggravated with her lack of attention to our home I built her where she will get what comes not necessarily what she wants. Sadly this will mean a drop off the radar on here and other forums I have been member as we shut down our internet services fairly soon. Been a fun trip and hope to get back on here but will be busy for awhile.

Dave, Good luck with your new place and all your moves. Dropping off some of these things we do ever day may not be a bad thing. We lived for years without them (internet, forums, social media) and did real good too. Might not be far behind you! Regards, Chris

Good luck with your move. Life often has changes that we don't expect but keep your faith in God and things will work out. Social media has become the principal means of communication the last few years, but I still write letters to a couple friends sometimes and they to me. Email too but the letters seem special. Hope you get back to the forum when things settle down for you. Russell.

No luck involved it seems.
Went looking for a property to buy and set a minimal home on, NOTHING not sold and at FROM $5200/a. Looked to rural old houses, spoke to two RE Agents we are friends with, NONE without two to eight Contingency contracts on them unless well beyond what we are looking for(IE Downsize). So called the buyers, explained there is a BIG problem, will still honor pricing HOWEVER will be cutting 8acres and the barn out of the equation(We own that anyway) caveat would deed access entry use provision. Explained would reduce price by $30k and if breaks the deal then deal is off, Simple English. Have to have a place to either build or stay, rentals as well are non existent close by where that creates a NO Sale by us at this point.

Have a friend that was in simular boat last year, was going to down size and build retiement home and the deal on the property he was buying didn't workout. He sold his house and buildings and built a new house and shop, just talked to him last week and the remaining 77 acres are in contract, he's holding his breath that it will go through. Will keep you in our thoughts and prayers Dave.

Well the husband came by to have us look at contract and take a $1000 earnest money check. Sat and discussed keeping the field below and building small home, he was good with it and suspected wife would agree. Went to his dad as to showing land lay on his purchase(I have a map system that can measure area) and he said does not want to see another house in the valley. So all is done and done, NOT moving, NOT selling for now.
Land prices are escalating weekly now, within a few months could likely sell for $200k more than asked this time but still nothing out there to buy any less than this cost. No Go for me. Rentals around here IF CAN GET ONE are in the same range as our payment again no brainer, NOT doing.
