What's the rental market like in your area? Could you rent it out, for now, and be able to cover the mortgage? Then rent somewhere else?

That would give you the chance to try out something new, without the complete purchase/sale commmitment right up front. And then maybe you could find out - do you need/want/miss the yard? Do you like being so close to town? Do you want something more rural, maybe?
