In this episode of PennyWise, host Nat Cardona sits down with NerdWallet's senior writer Holden Lewis to discuss the strategic move of selling your home to boost your retirement savings. As many Americans consider downsizing for their golden years, we delve into the critical factors that should guide this life-changing decision.
Holden brings a personal touch to the conversation, sharing his own considerations as he plans to transition from the sunny coasts of Florida to the mountains of North Carolina or Tennessee. With his house's value quintupling over 25 years, he exemplifies the potential financial windfall and the importance of researching the cost of living, property taxes, and medical care in your desired retirement location.
The episode covers practical advice on timing your home sale, navigating mortgage challenges post-retirement, and the wisdom of 'test driving' a new location in all seasons. Whether you're dreaming of a quiet mountain retreat or a bustling city condo, PennyWise is here to help you retire in style without sacrificing financial security.
