Rent or Sale, first investment home?
Hey Ladies and Gentleman,
I have a question. I purchase my first investment home in February 2017, I remodeled and it’s looking good. I put it on the market in August, been having some people interested here and there. But nothing definite. The home is listed at $85k I have total of $38k invested in it (include purchase of home and remodeling). A lot of my money is tied up. I’m thinking if it don’t sell by December to go
ahead and rent it out, which will be an easy $1,000 - $1,200 a month. What’s y’all advice and experience ?
