You'll also need $10k-$20k for closing costs and other items on normal loans, as well as 3-6 months of reserves (PITIA) for the majority of lenders. 

What would you save in captial gains on the $360k if you sold now?

Ideally, I wanted within 1 mile and sold within 6 months. 

With hurricane season now over and the house would (hopefully) be sold well before the next one I am curious if anyone has any seen any change/decrease in sales with areas that have flooded recently?

It's no different than those who hold stocks, then need to liquidate to purchase items.

Hi @Sam M.there are great answers on this post but I want to clarify something.In a real estate transaction most of the items are negotiable.

Any information you are willing to share about past projects from addresses, scope of work, estimates, line item breakdowns, materials costs etc.  

However, the number of homes sold decreased by 25% during the same period, with 505 homes sold in January 2025 compared to 673 in December 2024.RocketLooking ahead, forecasts suggest a period of relative stability in home values, with a slight 0.1% increase anticipated between February and April 2025.

I see two that sold there in last 6 months - one was a 2 bed, 2,500 sq ft cabin that sold for 885k last week.

Big ticket items like cars, boats, and disney vacations would increase greatly.
