We've seen a drop in prices on SSI and right now, our house here is worth the same as homes we've been looking at there. Land is the same price but we do live in a more expensive area anyway. What we don't have here of course is the provincial tax. Food is roughly the same and property taxes too. Not sure about utilities yet but will be looking at that on our next trip. <br /><br />So many things to think about!Chyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09612160129616190092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420789516107092243.post-77849008071786791772013-04-22T08:12:17.269-07:002013-04-22T08:12:17.269-07:00Lots to ponder when making these big decisions.
