We have been renting our house for 15 years and now have the option to buy it for $240,000. The current market value is between $280,000 and $300,000. We have also found a nice condo for $175,000. Are we throwing away $40,000 in immediate equity by not buying the house, or would we be better off with the condo?

I recently retired and have earned a federal pension. I took a position with another employer in CA, but my spouse remains in Illinois and is maintaining the house and supporting my two daughters using my pension. I am in CA and have established my residency there, but my spouse remains in Illinois as a resident. Both my new employer salary and federal pension have been taxed in CA. However, I never see the pension since it is being used to maintain the Illinois family and residence. Can that pension or any portion be considered Illinois, rather than CA, income?
