Trulia Win $25K for Your Perfect Home #TruliHome

Have you ever had something go wrong with your home and you think, “This is why it stinks to be a homeowner!” or “If one more thing goes wrong with this house I am selling it!”? My husband and I have owned our home for almost a decade, and we have been really lucky. We live in an amazing neighborhood full of older homes that have withstood the test of time through all of the weather that Florida can throw at them. We have fantastic neighbors who all have similarly built houses and very few problems with them. Unfortunately, there is one issue that even the most well-built house will eventually face: the test of time. What’s even worse is that once one thing starts to go wrong, it almost seems as though the entire house will start to fall apart. So here we are, up to our necks in home repairs for the very first time. Even though we love our house and our neighborhood, I would be lying if I didn’t say that on some of the more stressful days I haven’t locked myself in the bedroom with a bowl of ice cream and my iPhone cruising www.trulia.com for a new home!

As much as I have enjoyed the idea of getting rid of this old house and starting fresh with a new one, I found that the more and more I hang out on the website, the more my neighbor’s “old” homes that are for sale are giving me ideas on how to create the “perfect” home out of my old one.

So imagine my excitement when I found out that Trulia is giving away $25,000 to one lucky person to make their home their #TruliHome! Just thinking of winning that prize make my head swirl with ideas on how to make my home #TruliHome. All you have to do is enter a valid email address to have a chance at winning $25,000 to make your home #TruliHome! For more information, visit https://www.trulia.com/TruliHome/?ecampaign=th_pd_prb

What would I do with the big prize? I would add on another bathroom. We have another little one on the way and 3 kids with one bathroom is only going to get harder in the future. What would you do with $25,000 from Trulia? Would you use it as a down payment on a new home that is full of possibilities or would you transform your existing home into the home of your dreams?
