I would appreciate experienced advise! I'm open minded to everything!
So my story starts with me. I'm currently in the Navy and i'm stationed in Spain and I only have 1 and 1/2 years remaining in the Navy, at that point I would like to be debt free bc i'll be attenting college. With that in mind, here is my story. I bought a home for $12k with a $30k worth. It needs repairs of est. $15k; however, my current debt is $26k without the extra $15k for repairs. The neighborhood isn't great. It's a very small retirement community in south Ga. SO, should I sell as is, fix repairs and sell, or does anyone have any other ideas. I'm brand new to Real Estate and I need some solid advise. I do not plan on ever living in south Ga again. I'm open to all ideas!!!
