To Sell or Rent my Single Family Homes in a Sellers Market

Chris Keaton
Posted

I have two single family homes that can rent for $1500-$1700 but the market has shifted to a sellers market where I can make about $100k more on each house than just a year ago. I'm thinking it would make more sense to sell them and take that cash and buy several smaller condos and apartments, that would rent from $800-1000 each. For example the houses can sell for $300k and I can get a good condo for $80-120k. Should I sell or rent. I currently have cash to buy a condo or two without selling the houses, but just looking to see what the smart move would be?

depend on your ultimate goal? how do you see yourself in 10 years or maybe 5. .. ? are you a flipper? multifamily owner?  single family owner ?    

Mi personally based on my goals I will keep them for now Buy more props, and then  at some point either sell them at once to buy something better ( cashflow) or keep them  ... 

More likely you probably will get more equity ...
