i bought a house that im house hacking for 26,500, put in about 6k in it, (materials) , mostly was sweat equity. I could  sell it now , i lived in it for 2 years, selling price would around 89k, by selling it now i could avoid capital gain taxes, if i wait until next year to sell it i have to live in it for another 3 years in order to avoid capital gain taxes. If i kerp it as a rental it would give me roughly 6k cash flow a year, what would you guys do?
