Hello, gradually sorting my life out - in slow steps.

One thing that has now come up for attention is a buy to let property that my husband and I bought 18 months ago which I could either sell now or let out. It has never been rented out before as the company that sold it to us rented it out as a showhome. In beginning of June their lease runs out. I did not want to get involved in this as I had a great fear of not being able to pay the mortgage and for some reason have always had huge anxiety about owning and dealing with property. My knee jerk reaction was/is to sell the house so that I would have the money to reinvest in a property that I would actually want to live in - this is in a town that I have no wish to go back to now - long story. I asked both:
what can I expect from selling the house? (its on the market but hasn't got any interest yet even at a reduced price) and got hexagram 3: 3/6 - 37 and what can i expect from letting it & not selling ? and got 16:1/6 - 21.

From what i can gather the letting would be the most favourable choice - but the relating hexagram of 37 is all about what I am most desiring right now - so maybe selling it and buying would be the best thing. Am almost in a spin with so many things to think about, but its urgent because the agents have said its quite hard to sell once you have tenants in. and as its a showhome its in good nic. But I can't afford to have it empty just to sell it. From those moving lines, could anyone put their opinions in? thanks hebe.

well, I think it's pretty clear that the Oracle is suggesting that selling will be problematic and possibly the lesser option in terms of financial benefit. However, I think both from your description of the situation and the second reading that emotionally it would b better for you to sell than to lease it out.
