sell your home and chase your travel dreams

Every person on this planet is trying to live his/her best life according to personal views on how the perfect life should look like. Not everyone has the courage to actually do that, so they live according to some rules that are imposed on them.

But, when you think about this complex subject, who can really tell you how to live your life? No one but you should do that. If you are a travel lover and your biggest dream is to go on your dream travel, and you have a way of pursuing that dream – go for it!

If you own a property in Austin and decide you no longer want to stay attached to one place, and you want to sell it fast and explore the world without financial constraints, this 4-tip guide for a fast sale is just for you!

Sale Strategy

To sell a property, you need to have a sale strategy. That means that you should choose the method of sale that suits you the most and plan everything. You’re pretty lucky because selling property in Austin shouldn’t be a problem with high interest for the area in the selling market.

If you’re not in a rush, you can sell it traditionally with some real estate agency, but if you are impatient to start your dream travel and need the funds quickly, there is another way. There are companies that can buy your property with cash and finalize the deal in just seven days.

Top Destinations to Choose From

Here are some suggestions/ideas for you on where to travel after you sell your house. There are some cannot-miss places out there, but it all depends on the type of trip you’d want.

  • Southeast Asia: This is (usually) a low-cost destination with some nice scenery and even better, luxury at a low cost. Countries in Southeast Asia, such as Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia, have certain landmarks which after experiencing them yourself, will remain in your mind pretty much forever.
  • Europe: Europe is a whole continent, and yet it’s kind of small when compared even to some countries. Brazil, for example, though a single country, it's approximately ⅘ the size of Europe. Europe is, however an incredibly culturally dense/rich place, where you’d find dozens of languages, completely different ways of life, architecture, ethnicities. It’s EXTREMELY diverse.

Paris, London, Madrid, Rome, and many many more, immediately come to mind when thinking about this place. It’s a place where you can travel multiple times, and still only experience a mere fraction of what’s there.

  • New Zealand: ‘Kiwi-land’ is pretty much the destination for your ideal holiday if you find yourself loving nature, greenery, breathtaking scenery, volcanoes, etc.
  • South America: Yes, America is not only the USA. In fact, the USA is in the North American continent. South America, similarly to Europe, is extremely diversified when it comes to culture and sights. Think Peru, Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Chile, Bolivia, Uruguay, etc. (there are actually 12 countries plus 2 non-sovereign territories to explore on this continent alone).
  • S. Road Trip: For every person who wishes to know the States in more depth, a road trip is the ideal way of vacationing. The topography of the U.S. is all over the place, making you feel as if you were traveling through the whole planet, instead of just one country. Ideally, take a car, camper van, van, or something similar, pack up on fuel, some spare tyres, and hit that road. You’ll love every mile and every minute of that adventure.

Form Lifelong Memories

After you sell the house and pick a vacation destination of your dreams, just go for it! Don’t wait. Have a reasonable and meaningful strategy with respect to the trip budget and you should also maximize every single day of the trip.

Try new things like scenic flights, culinary tours, hiking, etc. Whatever interested you and you didn’t have a chance to try it, now is the perfect time for it.

Post-Travel Lifestyle

You should take every benefit you can from your dream travel, and maybe you will get inspiration and an idea of what you would like to do when you come back.

That can be an idea for a new job or lifestyle, and even an idea for a new trip and some job that you can do on the road remotely.

Conclusion

Be bold, be fearless! Live your life to the fullest, and if selling the house and heading on the road of a lifetime is what makes YOU happy – go for it!

Develop a useful budget for several months ahead and determine the conditioning factors on how much money you’re willing to allocate for your travels. Use that free and inspirational/exciting time during the trip to make plans for your return home and what you’re going to do next.

Choose a destination that suits your interests and desires, pack a suitcase, and have an amazing trip!
