We want to live in a different part of the state when we come back/retire. We also want at least one more bedroom than we have now.

We did think about leasing the house out, but REALLY don't want to be absentee landlords. Most of the people that we know are either retired, or close to it. The others don't want to live so far out in the country so don't know of anyone we know who would be willing to stay here.

This is a wonderful house & we've put a lot of work into it, but I'm sure we'll enjoy the next one at least as much.

Thanks for your suggestion!
