I'm going to be going through that probably next spring, and I'm told it's even more of a hassle and a headache than just buying a house is. Can't wait. But, like I said, I know I have to tools to deal with it, so I'm sure it wont be as big a deal as it seems like it might be now.

I can't possibly imagine that being a landlord is actually less work than selling a house.
