For a minute, the Vances thought they might move. It seemed like everyone just needed more space. Cory, a contractor, needed a larger home woodshop to grow his business, while mom Lisa dreamed of an expanded kitchen to continue her new obsession with baking. The way she keeps getting requests from friends and neighbors for her beautiful cakes, she might just have a business.

Teenage twins Derek and Darrell just wished the basement was finished so they could start having friends over again. Learning from home was complicating things, too.

But when they started looking for a new home, none of them really felt like “home.” None were impressive enough to make them want to leave their neighborhood, school, and growing client bases for mom and dad’s businesses…especially not at the prices in today’s real estate market.

Plus, every time they thought about packing up and listing their own house, the emotions were too heavy. The Vance family felt stuck between growing into their future and the home of their past.
