6 You never bonded with your home. Move or improve?
Verdict: Move
This phenomenon is real. I’ve experienced it, and I’ve heard many stories of homeowners and renters who have experienced the same thing: the home you don’t ever connect with. People purchase homes that are brand new and they never bond with them. People purchase heritage homes and never bond with them. Same goes for completely renovated homes. Of course there are compromises in nearly every home purchase but if you don’t bond with your home for whatever the reason, again, don’t expend the energy despising it and just move on, literally. If you’re renting, don’t think twice about it, just move at the end of your lease. If you’re an owner, financially speaking this can be costly unless you are downsizing. You can speak to a real estate agent you trust to get the lowdown.
