hi vera, it might be good to speak with an agent who understands investment properties to advise you on the possibility of renting it out. there are some tax deductions that might make it more palatable.
i know the feeling of not wanting to have ties.. but my W and I have an investment prop and it would not make sense to sell now. so we communicate via email, business only, and it has been ok thus far.
take care, vera.

Hey veroprado. Thanks for the hug. I'm not sure I want to stall on selling the house, that's the thing. I feel like it's holding me back from moving forward and making a life for myself. I'm not sure if I'm just detached or if I have actually begun to walk away myself.
I did have a good workout, despite not being in my normal gym. Ran for a good chunk. A bit to hot to do much more, though.
Thanks, BK. You would be proud - tonight I consoled myself by looking at some art prints online. I'm going to get them for staging the house and then take them with me for my next place.
Thanks zig. I just about had a heart attack when I saw how much shipping was on the 3 items I was going to get, so I knocked it down to 2 (1 large print and one smaller, framed one) and felt a little bit better.
STBX is arriving home in a little bit and I have my first meeting with a realtor with him tonight. Wish me luck! It is going to take every drop of strength I have to not go into total b1tch mode (with STBX AND the realtor) about selling this house.
