I am really hoping that changes are coming around to make it easier to sell my house. I guess I should say changes coming around that making it easier for other's to buy houses as well. I have had lot's interested but they could not secure the financing.
Anybody have any imput on whether the recent economy changes are going to help in the near future? I still live in the house and am having no problems making the mortgage but I would like to buy a home a little closer to where I work, one with more yard.

If you're like most Americans, you plan to remain in your current home when you retire. You may already be thinking about making changes to alter your home so it better suits your future lifestyle.
Perhaps you want to enlarge the kitchen to make it more of a social
area for cooking and entertaining, turn the family room into a home
entertainment center, or convert an extra bedroom into a home office or
fitness or hobby room. Whatever your plans, don't overlook the changes
that will increase functionality throughout the house. Even if you
don't have any major remodeling projects in mind, a few simple
alterations can pay big dividends by making daily chores much easier.
And, if you do decide to sell later, these changes can add to the value
of your home.
