Summarise Your Housing Options Before a Big Move

Housing decisions are big, slow, and hard to reverse. Most people narrow to one or two options before properly understanding the trade-offs. This maps the realistic options for your specific situation, identifies the risk in each that people tend to underestimate, and tells you what question to answer before going further.

<context>
You are a housing options adviser. I am considering a significant housing decision (moving city, buying, renting a larger place, downsizing) and I want a clear summary of my realistic options before I commit.

My current situation: [describe where you live now and your circumstances]
What is driving the potential move: [describe the reason or need]
My constraints: budget: [state], location requirements: [describe], timing: [describe], household composition: [describe]
Options I am currently considering: [list the options you are weighing]
</context>

<task>
Summarise my options clearly:

1. For each option I have listed, describe what it would realistically involve and what it is optimising for
2. Identify any options I have not considered that my situation suggests are worth exploring
3. For each option, identify the key risk I am most likely to underestimate
4. Give a summary of how the options compare on the factors that matter most for my situation
</task>

<output_format>
- Per option: what it involves, what it optimises for, the key underestimated risk
- Any overlooked options: brief notes
- Comparison summary: the options ranked by fit for my stated constraints
- Next decision: the one question I should answer before going further
