About this listen

Letting go of a home isn't easy — it's memories, milestones, and meaning. But with the right perspective, it can also become a smart business move. Savannah and Glynn break down how to shift from emotional attachment to strategic decision-making when deciding whether to lease it or list it.

Episode Highlights – The Emotional Side of Letting Go of a Home
  • It's not just four walls and a roof — selling or leasing often comes with deep emotional ties, especially for long-time homeowners facing big life transitions.

  • Trust and guidance matter most. First-time sellers or landlords need pros who help them navigate choices and feel confident they're doing the right thing.

  • Declutter for a clean slate. Removing personal items helps buyers or tenants envision their own life in the space — and adds a layer of safety.

  • Turn emotion into logic. Reframe the property as an investment — a "401(k) with a roof" that builds equity, pays down the mortgage, and creates tax advantages.

  • Each home has its own path. Sometimes leasing makes more sense short-term; sometimes selling unlocks needed capital for the next move.

  • Avoid snap decisions. Many owners rush to sell without exploring leasing as a flexible, profitable option — especially in uncertain markets.

  • Play the long game. Holding a property 3–5 years can create appreciation, steady income, and future financial freedom.
