Help me decide: taka loose or rent out at low COC
I purchased a house at the sherif sale
It is in a neighborhood that the average house s 1500 SF selling at $120 per SF
This house is 2500 SF
I purchased at $151k cash
Due to a serious unforeseen issue my assumed rehab cost of $90k turned into 110k
My holding cost is 950 a month all expenses in
My issue
For someone with $300k would probably want to go to a different area
After broker fees my lowest I can sell to break even is $280k
I tried $300/295/290 with no luck
My question
Do I take a loss and dip lower
Or
Rent for $2200 a month
After all expenses I will be getting a 5.5% COC return
