Going for Hajj while under mortgage debts

السؤال

Assalamu Alaykum, Previously, I had already asked whether is ok for me to perform Hajj while I am still paying for my mortgage repayment. Many thanks to the Sheikh who said it was ok, as long as I am able to repay it quite comfortably at ease. The thing is, I forgot to mention that I purchased this current house, I had already taken out a mortgage for a two bedroom house before I got married, which I sold three years ago in order to buy a slightly bigger one-which I now have and the new mortgage repayments are not substantially expensive (very affordable). Just to inform you the reason why I sold the first house and consequently bought the other one which is slightly bigger is because I am now married and I have a son and a daughter. InSha Allah I am planning a bigger family. A friend of mine told me that I had committed a sin. According to him, when I bought the first house it was sort of like a necessity. But since I sold it in order to buy a slightly bigger one it is a sin. I only want to know whether I still can perform Hajj next year InSha Allah while I still have a small mortgage to pay ? Please answer me at your earliest convenience as this matter concerns me rather immensely. Jazakum Allah.
