I need guidance. I own a property. 475K is owed. 55K is in redraw. 500K is in offset. I could pay off my house. I could save and move in 5 to 10 years. The house is small. It has 3 bedrooms, 1 lounge, 1 bath, no garage. I have 3 young kids. The real-estate agent said I could get 750k to 800k. I expect 730k to 740k. I am looking at a house. It has 5 bedrooms, 3 baths, 2 lounges, and a 2-car garage. It costs 1.1 million. If you were in my shoes, would you sit and hold, move when you can afford a new deposit, live debt free? Or would you take a risk and buy a new home? For context: I received a 500k payout for a workplace injury.
