Peace of mind versus a few thousand dollars. Am I reading this right?

You are doing the smart thing in asking about any unforeseen "gotchas" with the We Buy Houses people.

You want out. Do what you can to break even, but understand that the loss of a few thousand dollars ($5k, right) is MORE than worth the nightmare of an acrimonious limbo. Hell, you can even hold off on the divorce to save up that money. List the things you'd have to forgo with the loss of that money (vacation, the nicer summer camp, any new cosmetics or hair salon visits, etc.) and see how that balances against staying where you are for the duration to fix the things that need to be fixed and await the Spring Housing Market, where you'll probably get a higher price.

Freedom is everything. foxes chew off their legs to free themselves from traps. Do what you have to do in order to get out of a bad situation.

I say this because the stress I read in your post seems to tell me that things are worse than what you're stating. Stay safe. Money is money and you'll earn it back later. But, trauma is trauma and a lot harder to heal from than the loss of a bit of cash.
