?Did I make a mistake by paying off my house?

[Ron Boling]

For the last two year I have been in Afghanistan as a civilian contractor making good money and decided to pay off my house. I paid it off at the end of last year I have been renting it out. I plan to stay here for another year.

My question is, would I have been better served by investing in other properties rather than putting it all in to one property?

Thanks in advance for the help and advice.
