My boys graduate HS in June. Wife and I have discussed a similar option. List the place high as hell and see how much we can make on it.
Buy a smaller house and land in a midwest state... or Texas

How much acreage?
Wife and I have thought along the same lines with our 72acre mtn homeplace. 67 ac I don't even know where you are but if it is like elsewhere, you should have tacked 200K onto the price.

Lots of people pulling up stakes and buying at crazy prices right now I have a goodly stack of mail from little hole in the wall real estate offices from everywhere I could imagine with stupid lowball offers to crazy inflated offers. But then. . . What do you do for a satisfactory replacement abode ?

where in pa you moving to? You were from Spring Grove if I remember right. Since you are from WV now, we can forgive your East of 81 roots. You would be welcome to this area. I warn you though, the market is hot here too. Every city dweller with $$$ is moving or buying a bailout home.

Sure you can sell for a tidy profit but you still need a home so you have to buy into the same market... inflation makes us seem wealthier for awhile.... until it doesn't

irfubar, My brother!
15 years ago it used to blow my mind listening to talk of equity. Like it meant a dam thing. Was 5 years into a 15 hear mortgage that followed me like a storm cloud. Had people telling me how I had so much equity in my little house in a fancy pants neighborhood. How I could take that equity and add on.
"What they hell you talking about? Equity ain't nothing. Its the difference between owning something, and owing more than it's worth! I'm trying to have no dam debt, not get more. And if I sell, I have no where to sleep until I buy another place. Then, I won't have money anymore."
Must be a space alien. You say this stuff to people, and they look at you like a mule looking at a new gate.
Read the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Disagreed with some of his ideas, obviously. But one thing in the very beginning of the book was to list assets and liabilities. He then explained how your home is a liability. Not an asset. How, even after you pay it off, you continually pour money into it.
Another thing on home prices. People who think the difference between buying price and selling price is money made. Our house has easily doubled in price in twenty years, maybe more now. But at double, I'd be losing my ass.
Right off the bat, it cost thousands to do the deal. Considering interest, you pay back 2+ times the borrowed money.
But hell, people like me would crash our economy.

Oldest son bought a huge nice home in Illinois for $89/sq ft. Here in SW Utah, it's $250-300/sq ft. Yeah, I wouldn't live in Illinois, but there are places in the country where you can get a home for a decent price.
