And of course the possibility that something expensive will need fixing or replacement. So I would focus not on how to save a few dollars in the short term but rather how to sell it quickly and be willing to accept the lowest offer you can live with. Get it over with and move here with no left over Ohio home concerns.

I was thinkin' the same thing.
