[andy hughes]

I would be inclined to rent out your own property. You will have additional income, and the security of knowing that you have a home if your job falls through. You can always opt to sell later on if you wish, but for now, renting seems like your best option.

[ewand]

Definately agree with you andy......there are many ways of rent out a place, you can do it all yourself and keep all of the rental income (provided it is low enough to not be taxed) or pass it over to an agency who will do all that for you, but charge a fee. You are in a decent situation, but remember, if you keep the property, you can ALWAYS sell it in the future if you find you're really hard up.

Don't sell.

[SimonMorton]

Don't sell or rent. Consider placing the property in trust and then register it as a charity.
