if you bought a house in Puna in the last 5 years

Here in Fl we are inudated with foreclosures.Not so much where we are but the southern part of the state is bad. We are on the west side 80 mi north of Tampa. What we are seeing here is a lot more people doing for sale by owner with a broker for a set fee they get on the mls on realtor.com. People know they are going to have to take less so they are being more creative and saving where they can dont know if this is good or bad but that is what we are starting to see alot of here. I would certainly consider doing a house swap if anyone is interested in leaving HI.We are putting our newly remodeled home on the market in Feb because we just miss Puna too much. We dont have mortgage so we can be a little more flexible and we did all the work ourselves so we are in good shape but I see it all the time with people I work with they want that one and they cant really afford it. They dont own their home it owns them.How can that make you happy
