This reminds me of the story of a wall-street banker convincing a fisherman who already has time for his friends / family to instead scale his fisherman business(get employees, integrate, then sell the business) all of which will lead him to be able to spend time with his friends and family.It already sounds like you have a great life - spending time wth family and in great health.Having additional money doesn't sounds like it would improve your life that much.

If your realtor is listing it for free and not helping, that's not much help since leaving you to screen tenants and run through leads is like asking you to perform knee surgery, you don't know what you are doing.All rental listings should get bombarded on Zillow Rental Manager and HotPads, etc in the first week so if you have limited activity, your price is either too high or the photos are bad and the copy about the place is bad.Use something like RentSpree from screening.

All my peers and clients who previously bought tax sale properties moved away from the strategy a number of years ago so I don't have any recent experiences to go off of, but wouldn't be surprised if the lead time is longer this time of year due to the holidays.
