Upsizing

If you're upsizing your home, you're probably going to use a lot of equity from your property to accomplish the move. While your down payment will always be an important factor in how much house you can afford, it's not the only one.

There are other factors to consider when upsizing your home. You'll need to make sure you can afford the higher monthly payments and that you're comfortable with the amount of debt you'll be taking on.

Downsizing

As we age, many of us find that our homes are simply too large for our needs. Maintenance and upkeep can be costly and time-consuming, and we may not be able to take advantage of all the space we have. Downsizing to a smaller home can be a great way to save money and simplify your life.

There are a few things to keep in mind when downsizing your home as a senior. First, think about your future needs and how a smaller home will fit those needs. Do you plan to travel more? Will you need extra space for guests? Make sure you'll still be comfortable in your new home.
