A little cramped?
Finding your current living space a little cramped is a common reason to
go looking for a new home. If you really love your home, you might
first explore several other options. You may decide to pursue a bare
minimal lifestyle – it’s amazing what you can cook in one pan and
taking turns using the dining room table. If you’re more adventurous,
you might be sitting in your living room right now asking yourself, “is
that a load bearing wall?” Followed with the thought, “I don’t think it
is… I think we can tear that right out!” Then there are those who
maintain several storage units including the shipping container that
appears to be a permanent structure in their front yard.
In the short term, I think we can all appreciate the efforts people make to
maximize a living space – but there comes a time, hopefully before the
permanent shipping container, that you recognize moving into a larger
space can be liberating. The ability to spread out in your living space,
the opportunity (and cost savings) of not maintaining storage units, and
the utility of having unencumbered access to your clothing, tools, and
other hidden treasures hiding away in closets, garages, and storage units.
