Should I sell or continue to rent the property?
We (wife and I) purchased a home to occupy in 2016 and 2018 I moved. I had no upfront cost to move into a new construction home. In 2018, we moved and started renting out the home. I was cash flow negative (the house was on a 15 year fixed), and I recently refinanced to a thirty year fixed investment loan. It now is $175/month in cash flow. The house has increased over $30K in value, and now I have over $60K in equity. I only had to put down $1000 total ($500 for appraisal and $500 at closing) for the refinance. When I run cap rate ratio the home doesn't seem like a horrible investment. When I run the ROI the home seems like a great investment. Should I continue to rent the home or sell the home when the current renters move out in June? Thank you for your help.

What would you do with the money if you sold? Do you have another market? I’d leave it parked personally, but my strategy is buy and hold.
