Response to Moving our homestead

We have the same problem as you. Ours is not a race track, but a quarry. We picked a part of the U.S. that we thought we'd like better and traveled for quite a few weekends over 2 years looking at property. Last year we found a 100 acres in TN (we were looking in WV, VA, NC and TN). We closed on it 8 months ago. Makeing two house payments has been really tough, but we know once we sell this old place, we'll be doing better. The quarry is now talking to us about buying our property and we're trying to work out a 2 year occupancy to give us time to pay off the 100 acres. Jobs are not something that we've given a whole lot of thought to. Our plan is to be totally debt free and only have to have jobs to pay for our visits to family and small daily expenditures, plus a good used car every few years. If you plan your move right, you can also change your lifestyle to make the move in the right direction with your life. Right now we work to pay a high interest mortgage, 8 maxed out credit cards, 2 new car loans, high taxes on our high wages, etc. and we still are falling farther behind. Be sure you know what you're moving away from and into. Make it for the better!!!
