<prompt> Human: My wife was offered a new job and we are considering taking it but have no idea how it is going to work. Weve only been in our house for a couple years and dont really know if well be able to sell it fast enough. Were also not sure how it works with banks when a family needs to relocate. We also dont want to move into a rental only to move again because the company has offered to pay all relocation costs. Plus we have young kids and dont want them to have to change schools twice.Also, we have no money saved for this as we were not planning for this at all. We may have about 40,000 in home equity. The area were moving to has about a 10 higher cost of living. The job my wife is taking will be almost a 25 increase in pay and Ill be able to work my same job from home.So how do people make this work?  <response>: My wife was offered a new job and we are considering taking it Thats step 1. She already has an offer; thats orders of magnitude better than just going in without one and expecting to get one as you drain your savings. Weve only been in our house for a couple yearsIs it more than two years? dont really know if well be able to sell it fast enough.You need a good realtor. All of the paperwork can be done over the internet. Were also not sure how it works with banks when a family needs to relocate. Im confused. What part of banking are you referring to? Anything you can do at a bank can be done electronically, except depositing cash. Plus we have young kids and dont want them to have to change schools twice.Thats really not a problem. Kids adjust faster than adults do. Ask any military brat. Also, we have no money saved for thisThere is your problem.How to fix it? Cut back on your expenses from now until then. By the way, what are your expenses now?Youll still be working from home this whole time, right? Can you do it from a hotel room? Youll still have money coming in. So how do people make this work? By realizing that 99 of the problems you face by doing it are mental. It can be stressful, but it isnt difficult.
