hard to compare both exactly but I would say we may be higher on the scale overall than many areas (and maybe moving on up further after this morning and this afternoon)

move downtown into an apartment.

I have to ask: do you have to move to San Diego and be close to the ocean?

•Likely, the new property wouldn’t be cashflow positive due to the market conditions.2.Upgrade to a Bigger Property and Sell•Sell our current home and move into a larger house to better meet our family’s needs.• Use some equity from the sale to make this transition smoother.I’m torn between maintaining our current home as an asset and buying  a new smaller house to use as a rental after we move back in versus simplifying and focusing on a single upgraded property Considering factors like market trends, potential equity growth, and quality of life, which path do you think would be most beneficial?

Try looking for lower priced mobile homes on private property that need to be moved. 

The key is building systems and finding solid property management to handle things while you move around.

Usually living in it for a few years may be enough for it to cash flow positive when you move out.  

i can only see it if you were upside down on an already owned property and you had to move and rented it to negate some of your loss

Then, they sign the lease, are issued a key, and can move in.Nobody moves in without passing my screening and signing the lease.

Still relatively new to this space (2020 was first move).
