What to do with first rental property that is almost paid off?
WE have our first rental property that is four years from being completely paid off. (About $20,000 left). We have about $100,000 cash and we’re itching to make real estate be new streams of income for us in retirement. Do we go ahead and pay off this rental? This property is a two bedroom near a major university and has increased in value in the past five years over 100% We also put a new roof on it two years ago, along with a new AC. We are just learning and don’t want to make stupid mistakes! Thanks for your advice
