You got out of the cage because of your foresight to buy a house. You didn't just luck into it. Good on ya, you earned it.

Thank you Schneed! We still have to actually sell our home, but luckily, we live in a very sought after area in NC where people are busting a gut to want to move to. So, I think we can probably sell our home pretty fast. There's not much to do to our house to get it ready to sell. Just spruce up the curb appeal a bit, throw on a coat or two of paint, and we're pretty much ready to put it on the market. I think we can have it sold by summer.
