I sold my house in Brunswick last year to a young, Maine couple. I probably could have waited a bit and gotten more money, but it made me really happy knowing they were local and would really appreciate the home like I had.

Hell yes, that's awesome. I'm currently in the first home I've ever owned, but if/when we ever move I'm hoping to do the same thing – sell it to a young couple like we were who are looking for their first home. Like you say, I'd want to know I'm selling it to someone who's going to live in it and appreciate it, not to some corporate bureaucrat who's going to turn around and try to rent it for triple what a mortgage payment on it would be.
