Dilemma - my head hurts
Posted: Mon May 28, 2012 10:35 am
Right, I'm glad the site is back up because this has been doing my nut in for a couple of weeks:
The good lady wife and I have been looking at some new houses for a few weeks. We wanted to part exchange our current house given that the market is crap and next door have had theirs on for 12 months! The plan was if we were a few grand short then I would sell the 1 to fund our new home and the baby that she wants shortly after. However, the part-ex price they offered us was way more than we'd get selling on the open market and we've blagged all sorts of extra goodies. We reserved our new house yesterday.
My problem is this: I don't really NEED to sell the 1, but I feel like I should to contibute a bit more to our future home. I've got a mate who is willing to buy it, so selling is no problem. I don't know what to do!
My heart says keep the 1 in my new garage, my head says sell it and buy a Classic instead. My wife doesn't want me to get rid but my conscience thinks I should...
HELP!
