Real estate Tax question: I have a personal property and investment property in Florida. I am about to pay one off. Should I pay off the investment property or the personal home?

I’m finally hitting a stride (now in my mid-30s) and have some cash to play around with/invest.

Anybody have any tips on how to go about the relocation conversation? I’m looking to move out of the city with our main office to a city with a much smaller office. With post-covid office culture I can’t imagine it’s that big of an ask. That said, I’m in a junior role and have been with the company for less than a year so I don’t know if this is a question I should really even ask at this time.

Sounds at least toxic.

Went from a big firm to work for a smaller firm. The people in the smaller firm are protective of their work and are good by their work too. I no longer feel chaos or stress. I am treated with respect and my schedule is more normal. I am even working more billable hours than before, but it feels like a seamless experience. I don’t work then past 5pm or anything out of the ordinary for this time of the year. I am so grateful!

My question is what is everyone’s experience with company hopping to get a pay bump within public accounting?
