Why not rent it? If you got it really cheap just rent it for the cost of the property taxes.

  Renting includes a number of financial and legal responsibilities. Bad tenants can be a nightmare. I don't really want to risk having to deal with that drama. Right now I'm thinking I'll just have to sell the house at a loss. Not really so bad. It won't be a tremendous loss and I have lived in 3 years. I guess in the end it would have been the same had I just rented. Previous to this I did rent for a long time and hated that. I really am serious about the van thing.

    Have you looked into working with a property manager? They do all the screening and tenant management stuff for you. You give them a fixed percentage of the rent and I guess you're the wallet for repairs, etc. Unless their take of the expected rent would result in a negative cash flow for you, it seems like a better option than selling at a loss.
