    Get the infection in my back cleaned out, recovering from a successful spinal fusion, and getting the feeling in my feet back.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

    Get this house sold ASAP when it hits market after new year, and find my "retirement" home in AZ. Yeah I'll still have to work, but with little or no mortgage, I can have a shit job and pay the bills just fine AND do all the cool stuff that I want to do to my property/house.

    I want a home that I can finally call MY home. Put the good sweat and tears into it because you know it's where you're going to hang your hat up for good.

    If you're in the metro area you shouldn't have any difficulty selling. Still a crazy seller's market out there.

    Last year the wife and I had a long discussion about what we wanted for 2017. We had decided to either sink some serious money into our Englewood house (which my wife bought with her first husband when she was 18, in 1981) so it had more than one bathroom and some entertaining space, OR sell it and buy a new house. On Christmas day, we decided to sell rather than fix up, and I think that was the right call. 6 weeks later we moved into our new-to-us house in the Columbine area and immediately afterward we put our Englewood house up for sale.

    It was on the market for 7 1/2 hours. At the end of the first day we had 3 full price offers, with financing done. And at a price that was well above what I thought it would have sold for.

    Put the good sweat and tears into it because you know it's where you're going to hang your hat up for good.
    When we moved into this home, we decided it had to have what we wanted without a lot of major modifications because we only plan on being here about 10 years. Once I'm able to retire, we're going to move someplace that is hopefully both cheaper to live and a little warmer. Right now NM is on the list. I also like Grand Junction. Wife loves Salida because she's a fly fisher but I think they still have pretty harsh winters there. Wherever we move after this is going to be our last move, at least that's my plan.

    Get out of the rental market by selling the other houses. Get the first one on the market and sold in January, then talk the tenants into buying the house they are in. Finish off the three rooms that need work in my house, then build a nice new deck to relax on the rest of the year.
