Your hard work, diligence and perseverence have paid off. Congratulations. I believe that you have done well for yourself and your husband. You might believe you have caught a knife, but IMHO you at least caught it by the handle after a small bounce off the floor. Best Wishes on the new digs.
As for detoxing from following real estate… I don’t think it’s possible. I am still trying to stop watching after catching REO fever in the mid-1990’s. Whether it’s the phenomenon of being unable to stop looking at the trainwreck of the past half-decade or the excitement of scoring a future investment property, I believe that once we are hooked, we are hooked.
