Should I Sell or Hold my old Primary

Louis Bratton

Posted

I am debating selling my old primary home. I moved out in June of 2017 and converted it to a rental property. I am making decent cash flow but I am sitting on nice chunk of equity (at least 100K) and I know if I sell it before June 2020 I get to keep 100% of the profits tax free.  I never planned on selling it because it is in a high appreciating market, but I am just wondering if selling it is the best option to allow me to scale faster.  I have been primarily a buy and hold investor for years buying one home a year, but I want to get to a point where I can pick up at least five a year.  What do you guys recommend?
