The question: do I sell now while the market is arguably still vibrant, pay off debt while keeping a net gain for reinvestment before a correction and rising interest rates , or continue to house hack this property, take out a HELOC (if and/or when possible) to further invest. * I have approximately $200,000 in personal debt between school loans and credit card debt.

With the surrounding area, I could see plenty of opportunity for some of the subcontractors that are getting some work with the Government to possibly need a vibrant office space fully equipped to suit their needs.
