Remote job search question:

My partner’s career is moving us to a smaller city w fewer jobs for myself in a few months. Starting to interview now so I’m set when we move. Should I interview for remote/hybrid-friendly jobs in my current location and wait until the offer stage to let them know of the impending move...or so I ask upfront if they’d be okay with it? I want them to want ME rather than my location, and I worry telling them upfront will give them a quick reason to not give me a chance.

Hi! Just found this as I’m in a similar situation. Haven’t planned the move but want to. It’s hard w strategy though. What did you end up doing?

Hey twin haha. Haven’t moved yet but decided to stay with my current company until after the stress of the move is over and then interview in my new location, applying to positions that are remote-friendly at the very least. Hoping folks will give me a chance once I start the interview circuit again! Best of luck to you as well, it’s def a tricky situation, made trickier by this profession and discipline!

How much do you normally on average net when you sell a home? Looking to upgrade due to second kid on the way and I’m curious how much goes to fees, brokers, agents, etc. My current home is worth 325k per Zillow and my mortgage balance is 165k, so about 160k of equity. So if I sold it for what it’s worth at 325k, how much could I expect to net for my next home’s down payment? I see different answers online so anyone with experience would be great. Thanks.
