Advice wanted on my next move

[Kevin Allen]

Ok so I bought my first sfr last year. Everything is going great. So this year I plan on purchasing a new house for myself and house hacking the one I live in now. It is free and clear. I have money for the down payment on the new house. I think I know what to do but want to see what everyone else would do. The rental that I currently have clears about 350 after mortgage. I will have the funds to either own that one free and clear or have the money for approximately 3 more down payments for 3 new properties. What would you do?
