House

Over the last few weeks we've been discussing how well our house is going to suit our future. The house is great and we love our neighborhood but we have concerns about Seattle schools and we could use just a little more space. We consulted a Realtor to get an idea of how much we could sell our home for and it was ultimately not enough to justify leaving. We've decided to stay and re-evaluate the situation when Alec is closer to attending school. In the mean time we are looking at making some more home improvements. We don't want to dump a bunch more money into the house and we are trying to be smart about what we think we could recover in a future sale. We are considering turning the basement space into a master bedroom and 3/4 bath. That would free up our bedroom to be a guest room/office.
