I would consider selling if you have lived in the home the past 2 / 5 years since you have a decent amount of tax free equity in there but as long as you have a plan to reinvest those funds.By your numbers, since you have an amazing rate and high rents, I would consider renting it out if you believe your area will continue to grow in value.

As someone who is just starting out, I am eager to learn and grow in this field.Experience Level: New to investingGoals: My primary goal is to become a full-time rental property investor.

If the numbers don't seem to make sense, consider a cheaper (but still growing market) or just keep saving until you can do out-of-state investing. 

Quote from @Alan Asriants: There has been a growing trend recently of individuals looking to house hack single-family homes.

A shopping mecca five times bigger than Lakeline Mall, a 21st century mega-factory, an ever-growing Apple campus and a somewhat secret but sizable spot occupied by Tesla.With a population increase from 2020 to 2023 of 14.5%, Williamson County is clocking more new residents than all other counties in this fast-growing region.

I was reading last night and thought:Why should I spend 2-3 years growing my single family home portfolio when I can just buy multifamilies without having to pay the huge down payment myself, instead using the private lender money?

Hi ALL,Can anyone recommend a easy to use property management tool that we can use, so far, we have 4 rentals and growing, We will like to have better control of the information and have a easy system for tenants to pay rent.As always, thank you for your input!!
