Leaving a comfortable life in Maryland for a cheaper home in Georgia seemed like a smart move—until reality hit. The lower mortgage didn’t make up for missing family, job struggles, and the stress of starting over. When we returned to Maryland, housing prices had soared, and our new mortgage was much higher. The financial and emotional toll led to divorce, and now I pay the price every month. If you’re considering a big move for a “fresh start,” think twice about what you might be giving up.
