MSW, above, also pointed out the "value of missed time" portion of the equation (which, incidentally, I've appreciated throughout all of his posts). Buying at Arcadia was absolutely a questionable financial decision at the time, but I knew it was my family's chance to live that life before my children got too old. They are now 9 & 11, and I'm forever grateful we took the leap.

Any other variables to selling high with the hopes of getting in low in the future?
