Should we sell? Property value has at least doubled. No mortgage.

We live in Rhode Island. Property values have gone up quite a lot. We purchased a 2700 sq ft colonial at $380k in 2018. Cash. We have done few upgrades such as a new kitchen, added a pergola off the living room to pool area. Painted, new carpet upstairs.

Zillows estimated value is around $689k. Recent comparable home in our town have listed around $699 and have sold for as much as $820, with bidding wars. And those homes do not have as many upgrades as us. Such as a pool/ finished basement, central vac, central ac etc.

We know this isn’t our forever home. We actually want to downsize, yet more private/ property. Properties we have looked at are currently in the range of $650-$850k.

Is now the time to sell and move to our next house? Or should we be sticking around because it’s paid for and value is high?

I’m hoping to almost do an “even swap” in the sense of selling and buying.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
