Tough one this Terry,
Waiting for the Visa is a pain, no doubt about it. For most of us selling the house is only attempted when all other parts of the process are complete. I think it is the felling of impatience and anticipation that make this the worse of the two.
Just my opinion
Bill

neither were stressful (unlikely)
