As I mentioned, our house is for sale. And quite reasonably priced in a desirable location, I might add…
Despite the for sale sign in our yard, we continue to debate whether we should sell our house or rent it out. There are so many factors, pros and cons, etc. to consider. I’m so sick of going over them that I can’t even bring myself to type about them here. It’s also insanely boring reading, you can just trust me on that.
Suffice it to say, we continue to waffle back and
forth. In fact, we waffle so much that
it’s become a sort of code word/short-hand in our relationship. If one of us says “waffle” out of the blue, we
immediately know that means we flipped back to wanting to rent, or vice
versa. It happens pretty much
daily. Pete has been known to just email
me a picture of a buttery Eggo from time to time.
The core issue seems to be a financial vs. philosophical
decision. Financially, it probably is “safer”
to keep the investment, although we could walk away now with equity. Philosophically,
we’d like to make a clean break and focus fully on this new chapter.
We are trying our best to let our life philosophy guide
us. The problem with letting money guide
us is that it’s really just fear disguised as money. That’s what we believe, anyway. Our life philosophy says, without a doubt,
sell. Let’s live this life the way we
want. Plus we’re kinda weird (you
noticed?), and it’s probably overall the weirder thing to do. So that’s always a good sign.
But we’ll see. Right
now it’s sell. Tomorrow’s breakfast is
sure to be….
