Turns out in the last month three different real estate agents have cold-called at the house. Seems like there’s a scarcity of homes for sale in the neighborhood. After the third agent left, I went to Zillow and saw that the house’s estimated value was $1.8M. That seems to be a lot of money and I wonder if my buying an air conditioning unit that says “Lennox” on it had, in part, helped to increase the value of the home. I don’t follow real estate and I don’t know much about Zillow (e.g. how accurate are they in their estimates. I’m hoping that they are incredibly accurate).
We don’t plan on selling the house in the next three years, so the house’s value is rather unimportant for the time being (it does make me happy). But, does the value of the house change anything for us as in how we invest (be less conservative)? Can we spend more money, etc. ? Now that I am thinking about it, maybe we should sell house sooner so we can be farther away from the children.
