The housing market is in a downward spiral and won't pull out of it for several years. Park your remaining four goats somewhere with a friend, move to the new area and find a new place, job, etc. Then have the goats shipped or go get them. Rent for several years and save money for a down payment. House and land prices will be less in several years so you will get more by waiting. Figure that whatever you pay for a place now, it will lose probably twenty to thirty percent of it's value before it goes back up again.

Just 2 things to remember: If the housing prices are low, the local jobs pay little and might be hard to get.

And, never buy what you have not seen!

What DH and I did was, we applied for work in the area we wanted, and when we drove down for the interview we also looked at housing.
