Rent my house vs. buying a rental property
I am so confuse and in need of some expert advice...
We owned a house and current on our mortgage. We can rent our house out for $2K per month. Our mortgage is $1500.
Plan A: We move and rent a place for $1500; Rent our house for $2K, cash flow $500.
Or...
Plan B: We buy a rental property in a less desirable area with a mortgage of $80K ($20K down); and rent that one out with rent ranging from $700-$900, before expenses and reserves.
Thanks.
