Claeren.
i bought my house in 1997 ... i want to upgrade now ...

if i used your advise, i wouldnt move because the houses are over valued. but isnt my house over valued, meaning it doesnt matter if i sell it and buy a new one ?

by my math, my debt level wont change, just my address which will be in a newer and nicer building.

so will it matter if i sell and buy in a down market?
