"Most people dont buy a new home without first selling their old one (I was the opposite and I am PAYING THE PRICE for my stupidity now)..."

I put my RI house on the market in August, but rented an apartment in SE PA, where I plan buying a house. The apartment was rented in May (looong story) and paying rent, much more than I would EVER consider paying for a mortgage, is psychologically killing me. I have also learned how much I **hate** apartment living, even though I have spent a total of two nights there since I got it.

My house in RI is not overpriced, is in a great area for schools, but like other houses in the town (rural area, but all named areas are called 'towns') is just sitting--people look but never make offers.

The big problem is that the people who would love to move to where I live cannot because their houses are not selling. The urban pockets have almost non-existent real estate sales so until these more urban houses sell, our prime area rural houses are not going to move.

In all seriousness, JDN, I wish I had bought a house when I put my old one of the market. If my old one remains unsold by May, when the apartment lease runs out, I am going to buy one and consider my 'For Sale' sign one a 'winter vacation' property until it sells.
