HI Frunzy,
Was in a similar situation myself recently.
I changed to Interest Only and reduced the rent asking on daft.
Need to change with the times. In my situation, I made sure my house had the lowest price on daft ( even if only by 20 euro/month) Had loads of interst, viewed the house and interviewed about 10 people and gave to the person i though would be the best tenant.
More important to have onething coming in, in my case i reduce rent from 1100 to 950
Hope that helps. When the situation you can always revert to paying off capital. Thinks 5 years is the maximum I.O. period you can have
