I say this mostly in jest...

But sometimes the more you love your current home, the harder it can be to get excited about the next one.

Of course, loving your home is exactly what I am hoping you do once you buy it.  Make it your own.  Make some improvements.  Enjoy it every minute of it. Make it a place that works really well for you and your family.

But sometimes really loving your current home makes it slightly harder to get excited about the next home.  :-)

For example...

Maybe your family has grown and you really need more space. Another bedroom or a larger kitchen would definitely improve the daily routines in your home. But your current home has a pretty amazing primary bedroom and bathroom suite. It is spacious, feels luxurious and you would definitely miss it if you didn't have it.  And now, every home we go to see has a primary suite that feels quite a bit less exciting.  

Or perhaps you have spent the past 10 years building an amazing outdoor space. The lawn is established, the landscaping looks great, the flower beds are blooming on schedule, and the raised vegetable beds produce a bountiful vegetables.  When we visit a possible next home with a great layout and location, you find it hard to imagine starting over with the outdoor work.

Sometimes it is even simpler than that.  You have spent years getting to a perfect arrangement for your furniture.  The sofa fits perfectly on that wall. The dining table sits comfortably in the space. Everything works.  Now when we walk into another home, you immediately start wondering if anything will fit quite as well.

Listen... I want you to love your home!  Do everything you can to fall in love with it.  Make it your own and enjoy every aspect of it.

Just remember, that if the time comes when you need to move because of space, location, or budget… the more you love your current home, the harder it might be to get excited about the next one.  :-)
