Ignore the "white haired disabled old lady" emotional noise.

@Tony Silvas I think part of the problem is that you are looking at this purely from a financial point of view and not the emotional part.

Although my wife is emotionally tied to the home I am only tied to the equity which is making no money for me now.

You don't want to end up making an emotionally charged financial decision that could end up with a negative outcome.I would first make a list of all my expenses and try to cut out what I don't need. 

This is just a business deal, no emotions for me... there will be others and its just how it works.Also found they have a section 8 tenant on a month to month (that I was going to remove anyway) that has been in violation of section 8 rules (additional occupants)... the Housing Authority has been looking for proof adn now I have it (the seller said in writing that they have been doing this for at least two years).

Thoughts, mixed with faith, and emotion, become things.  

Any aggressive dog is a problem, regardless of breed.Another consideration is that of emotional support dog ownership. 

Tell her that she is emotionally involved in the property and the buyers are not.

QUESTION - have you had any calls from your marketing this way...and can you see when the images have been taken - hint, this is not the same date on the Google Copyright date which is whatever the current year is, but you have to look a little deeper down, where it says 'image capture 2014' or whatever year.That is a very cool thing if it works...maybe you look at the year before you start 'driving' down that particular road...and if it's say 2015 or newer...you go for it?  

On my last visit I felt a sense of urgency to try and help the island recover in someway but I believe this is deeper than most of us know.
