Tree Change
Thanks for the encouragement, we are going to visit a number of regional areas over the next few months and see how we feel about it all.We had a house in Tassy a few years ago down near Hobart,it was on a couple of acres overlooking Storm Bay.It was an investment property,we thought we would give it a go living down there.The skies there were incredible, but in the end it was the "breeze" that came off the southern ocean that got to us.It was so cold most days ,the side of the house that faced south copped the icy cold wind, the other side of the house was a little warmer in the sun.Luckily we still had our house on the Central Coast to come back to.I don't mind the cold so much,its the wind factor that gets to you.I guess if we were to move out west we would face a similar situation with the cold,not necessarily wind,but certainly ice and maybe snow.My wife is fine with moving to an area out west as long as it has a fairly large town nearby.House prices will certainly govern where we will eventually move to,but my main criteria will be at least half an acre,and a clear view ,no trees blocking the scope's view,something I have never had ( except Tassy ).Should be an exciting time looking forward,especially the retirement part.
