I responded to the other post you wrote and told you why I like JD Management.
About renting the house, we have found it to be an excellent idea. We have rented our place since 2005 for most of the year because we are unable to live in TV for more than short periods. If you have a good management company, all the details of caring for things will be attended to. Renters have proven to be very responsible and respectful of our property. Rentals cover a majority of the costs of owning the home, (not counting a mortgage), if you are willing to rent part or all of the winter months. We were very lucky to get the wonderful resale home we got, and renting it has made maintaining two homes possible.
