Patrick -
If you are unable to sell your home and/or your stuff....?
I advise donating whatever you have of value to
http://www.pazanimal.org/indexdos.html
I did this with all my stuff. I had enough with unreliable Colombians trying to jip me off, therefore I decided to just give it to a viable organization in Cali COLOMBIA - because I know this organization on a personal level.
Fyi: Selling your home in today's market will be difficult and I wish you luck.
