Yeah. The only advantage is that the house I can buy for a song is its a two story with dedicated HVAC...so I can close off the upstairs with 3 BR's/2baths and not heat it when they're gone. Then we would be only dealing with about 23oo sq ft to heat/cool/clean.
On a semi related note (and since you saw the RE problems as severe way back in 2005), we have paid cash for the house. I hate house payments, but with interest rates as low as they are I'm tempted to finance say 40% (c. $100K and invest in something else). But I hate house payments. What say you?
