Wow! What are his concerns about moving? I guess you are not a "tiny home" person? Sounds like a deeper problem that we can solve here.
Do you want to move to a new city/state? Or just to a different house in the same area? Maybe you could have a realtor come to your house and give you some options on what your house would sell for, what is available in your area, etc.
I have a hard time getting my husband to move off his recliner. Good Luck
Buy him a sports car or a boat or a 4 wheeler so that you need a bigger garage, or a bigger yard or some water. :) Good Luck!
The basic answer would be..."talking" to him first! Before that, try making a list of pros and cons of your present house. Then if where you are (state) has a county web site for property taxes (a great resource - info gleaned.....average taxes, property sizes, history etc.). Write down some details to show him-average property costs, living area, locations, schools (if you had kids), shopping etc.
You didn't mention if money was an issue, i.e. mortgage, present property taxes, job-commute from present house to new one? If he still won't budge, might not make a difference. Too many variables to give full justice to your question. I hope it all works out for you.
I thought about your question for awhile and could not come up with a good answer. Finally I googled, "how to get your husband to move to a bigger house." You can start there...I read some interesting information.
