I'm quite impressed. Moving has always been a very tedious and expensive endeavor for me - adding the miriad costs of a new home - I'm impressed you didn't have a negative savings amount!!<BR/><BR/>Here's a <A HREF="http://makingourway.blogspot.com/2006/12/strategic-planning-for-next-year.html" REL="nofollow">link</A> of our 2007 plan, which includes selling our house and buying a new one. Check out the financial differentials - pretty painful. I'm expecting the new home and move to eat about 1/3 of our networth gain (if we stayed put).<BR/><BR/>Would you mind submitting your summary to the new Networth Carnival of Personal Finances? We have a 2006 end of year and january edition going up end of next week.

I would love to own in the DC area, but the housing market has definitely not cooled anywhere close to enough here for me to be able to even think about it.

I think the safest thing is to leave it valued at the original purchase price, or what the government is going to assess it for your property taxes.

Totally worth the offset of not knowing the 'exact' value.
