Like the last time, I made some effort to sell it myself before hiring a realtor. Thought I had one guy interested this time, then he said he wanted me to finance it, and that was a non-starter.

I bought the place for $390K less than 4 years ago. I think I'll come out of it OK, even after paying the 5%.
