I didn't find selling my house to be onerous. It was really just kind of a hassle is all. The main reason I was glad not to be living there at the time is that I would have worried incessantly about someone letting my cats out inadvertently. As it was, there were several agents who failed to lock up my house after they left or screwed up the alarm. The only real difficulty I faced in selling was trying to price it. My house was downtown and pricing changes on a dime in that area from block to block. Most properties are unique in one way or another and there were so few comps, so it was a bit of a guessing game. I initially went in too high, but quickly adjusted it.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
