We never know when the market will allow for bidding wars on the price of homes, which was the case in some areas before the recent housing crisis. Similarly, we never know when we will have to make a decision about whether or not to move our family.

Cantrell, and published by the UF Department of Family Youth and Community Sciences, March 2012.
