I've never been in the position to seel a house, not having bought one yet! Though maybe get it with more estate agents, you see some places around these parts with 3 or 4 different estate agent signs up. Also the obvious but not-very-good thing to do would be to lower the price a bit, though I think the marked seems to be slowing everywhere at the moment, especially up north (generalisation, i go from London to Cheshire every week and it seems more 'business-as-usual' down there.)

Ooh sorry also on the letting it out front, you could then convert your mortgage on that place to interest only, which would possibly mean you'd then break even or even make a little each month. That way you've got a magical investment that in 5-10 years will be worth more with any luck.
