<prompt> Human: Got a new job and cant decide if I should sell my house bc of the commute.New job is 40 miles hour away, but with traffic probably 1.5hrs each way. I will probably lose 10-15k on the sell of the house. I have owned the home 7 years and sunk 35K into it. The loss from the sale is not even factoring in the 35K I have put into the house.If I sell I wouldnt be able to buy a new property, so I would have to rent. Probably be spending 1700 on rent for a place 5-10 minutes away from job.The only reason I am considering staying is because after maxing 401-K fully and roth I wont be saving but max 5K a year if I move. I know if I stay most of the money I will be saving would be offset by commuting cost, but at least I will be closer to paying off the home; I have 14 years left on the mortgage.Any ideas???edit: I guess my main concern is that I probably wont be able to afford another home for at least a decade. If I hold onto the house at least I can look forward to owning a home outright in 14 years instead of starting all over again in ten years.  <response>: Could you rent out the house?
