North Florida Newbie Looking for Advice
Hello, BP community. My name is Lewis Sharp. I don’t have a real estate background but would love to get started. I recently relocated from Nashville, Tennessee to North Florida. I work as a Nurse Anesthetist but would love to use real estate as an additional income source. Ideally, I’d like to use real estate to step away from anesthesia as my full-time job. I’ve been listening to the Bigger Pockets podcasts and would love to be a part of this community.
I have one property and was Hopi to get advice on the next best step. I’m sorry if this isn’t the right forum I can repost elsewhere.
I purchased a Fully renovated, 3/2 1250sqft home in East Nashville, TN thinking we would live there for a while. Unfortunately, had to relocate back to North Florida, 2 years after purchase. I’m wondering if I should continue renting this home or sell. Here are the details:
Purchase with 30 year fixed FHA Loan 3.25% interest rate with PMI in 2016
Price $289,900 & $3,500 down
Current balance $264,517
Rent $2400, Monthly mortgage $1713, $687 Monthly Free Cash Flow.
I had a realtor in the area say the house should sell between 350-400k at current market. I also am quite sure I could get $2500/month in rent. I currently manage the property myself. Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Lewis
