I will list the numbers:current rent $1950/month (going to $2000 in about 6 months at end of 2 yr lease)My expenses: annual taxes $7950 ($662/month)                        Heloc balance $170k interest currently 5%                        land lord policy $1150/ year                        Self managed                        Maintenance : has averaged $300-400 per year.Reasons I am considering sale :   1) property is currently worth about $270k (making me feel roi is low).                                                           2) property has a pool which is a liability that I'm not completely comfortable with.                                                           3) property has a heloc balance against it of about $170k that I technically cannot deduct the interest                                                                       because it wasn't used for the property or any other rental.                                                           4) Tax treatment: my understanding is if you sell it having lived in it 2 out of last 5 years the capital gains                                                                 would be exempt.
