It sounds like you decision comes down to a couple key aspects; 1) can you afford to go full-timing/long term without selling the S&B and 2) where do you want to have a S&B at some point in the future? If you are planning on/wanting to sell the S&B to build/move to our Washington property, do a FT stint in the interim. If you are wanting to keep a house near the family/in an area where due to market you can't afford to re-buy in, then you need to keep the house. This is just a restatement into more black & white terms of the dilemma it sounds like you two are struggling with.

Well a fair rent for our house would be a little more the double our mortgage, taxes and insurance all together. And no we would never be able to afford to come back and buy a home here again. But I don't know if I want to be a landlord. And we could not afford to keep our house and full time without at least renting it out. Shelley and I have been reading all of your comments, and soaking it up. Were leaning towards selling the house and going for it.
