Keep or Sell Home with a Pool
HI All this is my first time posting in the BP forum!
I am moving from my 2-family house to a new single family house in a few months. The house was bought in 2016 for 600K and has appreicated to around 800K (based on Zillow recent sales) . I am debating whether to rent out the current unit I am living in (that has access to the backyard and pool) or sell the property and reinvest the gains into other projects. The unit I am living in will be rented to a family member who will be paying at the market rate and will not use the pool. The other unit is rented to a very good and responsbile tenent. However, the cash flow is pretty much $0 (before tax). The only upsides I see are depreciation and property appreciation.
I would like to here your thoughts on selling or keeping the property. Thanks!
