Does that make us crazy?

Well, we all know the economy has not been on the uptick for some time now. And any current news-reader has heard that the real-estate market has been affected tremendously. So, why you ask do I write about such gloom and doom? Because...
We are putting our house on the market next week! Ahhhh, the excitement and stress of that statement is too much. So, does that make us crazy?!?!
No, I don't think so. We'd be crazy not to take advantage of the LOW low interest rates of late! And, we have decided, after much deliberation, that we would be crazy not to at least try to sell. We've been thinking about moving closer into Dallas for some time now and for many reasons. First, we know our current house will not be able to hold our family forever, and we would also like to be closer to Brett's office (so that we can see him/he can see us at least some during the crazy busy season he experiences from Janurary to April). Thus, we are on the hunt for a 4+ BR/2.5+ bath house (with a whole lotta other wants versus wish-list requests :-) We don't think it will be hard to find a home we like with the current state of the market, it is just the thought of selling ours that makes us nervous...
And we hope to sell/buy/close and move before January, when Brett's schedule would not permit such things! Now, does that make us crazy?! Some might say yes, but we're gonna give it a try :-)
So, if you know of anybody looking for a 3 bedroom/2 bathroom house in the Dallas 'burbs (east/northeast to be exact), let me know!

Not sure how close you're wanting to get to Dallas, but I think there are one or two in our neighborhood on the market. We love our location!

I agree! Interest rates are RIDICULOUS right now! Get in there while you can! If you aren't able to sell, refinance! I will be crossing my fingers though!
