Sell vs renting out my house
Hello,
I live in Tacoma and I'm trying to decide if my wife and I should sell our home or rent it out. It's 3 bedroom, 2.5 baths and 2300 square feet. We have around $170k in equity. Selling would be nice to pay off some debt and have the cash available to jump on a deal (looking for duplex or triplex) but can't decide if it'd be smarter to rent our house out. If we did it would generate about $600 positive cashflow in addition to paying off the mortgage.
Any feedback would be appreciated!
