Love my beautiful house and yard. We've worked very hard to make it what is over the years. HATE THE NEIGHBORHOOD it has turned into over 30 years.

Will be hard if not impossible to sell and with poor return in this market/economy/community.

So for now, at least, we stay.

As previously stated: LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. Can't change that one!

And yes, a vacation rental would be an option in beautiful Hood River. (I'd rent from you for a fall ride week-end!) My daughter found renting her house in Eugene through VRBO to be a LOT of work though. They were able to sell it this summer and she bought a nice, new purse with the proceeds

I'm by far no real estate expert, but I guess I would sit on this a bit. Interest rates aren't moving much. I think you'll know when its right.
