Baby steps...
Our home will go on the market around the end of next week. We have only been here 3 years, and I am sure I don't have to tell you that we bought at the peak (i.e., when everything was through-the-roof expensive) and now, well, it is definitely not peaking (like so much meringue that has fallen!).
We know we won't walk away with what we've put into this house, but we do need enough for a 20% deposit on another home. We are meeting with a Realtor team tomorrow morning; the wife was our realtor when we bought this house. They have a great reputation, and have a home similar to ours under contract even now, with less than 20 days on the market.
Please remember us (pray if that's your thing!), that we are able to sell this lovely house (by mid August at the latest) and walk away with what is needed to get us into a modest home in our new city.
And I am serious when I say lovely. If I could pick it up and take it with us, I would.

Your house looks great -- good luck with the sale. We each sold a property last year before the whole subprime thing went nuts, and at least now things don't seem as nuts as then.
The best thing is that I have no doubt you'll be able to take your sense of home with you to a new place.
Prayers offered!
Wow! I somehow missed the previous post (I hate it when that happens!) where you shared the details about moving so when I got on this morning and read "our new city" I was confused, (albeit briefly.) So it's great news that you get to move back to VA -- seems like everything has fallen into place and is a real answer to prayers.
Good luck selling your house. It's looks like a beautiful house that people would love to make their own. I love your kitchen.
