Is it better to rent out a house or let it sell?

sell house quick
Me and my wife wanted to move out of state from where we moved from, we currently are trying to sell the house ourselves cause of the expensives of closing cost and relators. We’ve had a few people look at the house but no offers that are for what we’re selling it for. Would it be better to wait and sell the house or rent it out to someone? I’d hate to be in another state and have a payment there and have a mortage payment here if someone “falls” through, I’d really love to sell quick. Any tips, ideas? It’s so stressful and I don’t want to live here anymore.

How do you know if you can trust your Realtor?

it’s not that I don’t trust my Realtor, but his suggestions to me for selling my house quick is to increase the 6% to 8% so Buyer’s agent etc will move quicker trying to sell it. I need an opinion if I should lower my sale price 5,000 and half of closing. The closing cost is a whopping 17,000 and half I would pay. Does that sound right? I sure thought closing cost would not be more than 10,000. My house has been on the market 6 weeks now and only had 2 showings. I am in this all by myself and have no eduation at all with the agent and real estate. any answers would be appreciated. Thanks, Janet
