First time posting! Would love some creative suggestions
Hi everybody,
I co-signed a flat in 2020 with my daughter. Now after living there for a short time she is realizing how this home does not suit her life for a variety of reasons. So, she is looking to move. There is at cursory glance about $25k in equity in the home. She is a freelancer so there is a 1099, she has good credit but very little of it hence me co-signing. However, she has improved in that area. The home has surrounding medical centers but not a large hosptial. She has no interest in being a landlord as one of my thoughts was for her to rent it out. The area in Chicago she owns the flat is descent and will have no trouble getting a good tenant. I do not live in Chicago. I currently own a few rental properties and literally just closed on a home that I intend to use as a MTR. So, the dilemma is what to do. I feel that selling is not a good idea. However, what are some options for her to come up with her own down payment if she keeps it. That is the bulk of the info, I am really open to all sorts of ideas and questions so I am just throwing it out there. Hopefully something lands that is right for this situation. Thank you all in advance for your insight!
