Tenant paying below 50% market value rent, sell?
Hello,
I have a peculiar situation here in India. My mom owns small commercial rental in India that I was managing and I am planning to relocate to USA soon on my job. The current tenant is paying only 50% of current market rent and had several missed payments during pandemic. I am left with two options one is to sell and reinvest the proceeds in a more profitable market for cash flow or raise the rent. I am expecting the property to appreciate aggressively within the next decade while the rent I we are currently getting there is like peanuts.
I have proposed to the current tenant to increase the rent else he will have to vacate and awaiting for his response.
If we decide to sell we will have to buy within 2 years a similar property to avoid a tax hit. I am expecting it to sell for approximately usd equivalent of $150000.
Is it possible to reinvest that in USA with the least possible tax hit? Separately I will appreciate if someone can share with me a commercial rental lease document template
Thanks
