[quote=Anonymous]In the next two months, I may have the opportunity to take a career-enhancing position that would require me to move to Seattle for a year. I am single, and my sons, 20 and 22, are in college. One attends school in Minnesota and the other in Pennsylvania. My job would pay for all my living expenses (food, lodging, etc.) while I am on the assignment.

If I take the position, I am considering renting my house here while I am in Seattle. However, that would require my sons to live with me there vs. here at home while they are not in school, which equals approx. four of the twelve months. I would get a large enough place in Seattle to accommodate the three of us, knowing they won't be there much.

I have reservations about renting my house to strangers, but I also don't want it sitting vacant for eight months.

Am I being selfish to rent out the house here and requiring them to uproot their home lives to move to Seattle, or should I not rent my house, so they have their place to come home to during the months they aren't in school? FYI-- my ex is deceased, and we have few relatives, so living elsewhere is not an option for them when they come home.[/quote]
