As you know the housing market in europe is pretty bad, to sell now would be madness........hold on for a bit longer, we have had our place rented in UK for 3 years now and am only just seeing an increase in the value, the $ v euro/pound is slowly getting better too, be patient. Houses generally here in oz are expensive, and the mortgage rate steep. Rent is about $450 per week. Hope this helps but I can understand your eagerness. Hope all goes well. P.
