Someone else should bite on owning a home in a hot rental market.
Just sell it for dirt cheap. There will always be someone out there.

Drop the price 'till you get interest. Even below what you think it's worth is much better than that.

Did State Farm have a legitimate reason for denying the replacement of the roof?
