I am curious at what stage of land development the sale was struck with builder.  

Here are the specifics on our Seattle house: 5br 4ba 3,400 sq ft, built in 2019, $1.7M est sale price, $5.5K-$6K/mo est rental value, 4.0% mortgage with $3.3K monthly payment, around $1M in equity. 

Right now you have $1,000 in cash flow that can be used to fund other projects (seed money), pay you in profit to supplement your lifestyle, or fill in any gaps for underperforming properties.  

And I understand (I think) your making interest only payments until you pay back the loan?

Here's how a seeming tax disaster turned into a strategic triumph.Picture this: You're sitting with your CPA, reviewing the sale of your residential rental property.

Would like confirmation on that though.For Solara, there seems to be no restrictions but a lot of houses for sale. 

With the exception of building a trailer on the property (these are hard to finance), this sounds like a good plan AND if you are using it for your business AND your business pays more than 50% of the rent (if you have more than 1 tenant), then this is a more financeable property in the eyes of banks and credit unions as it would be consider a commercial "owner-occupied" property. 

Steady pay, you can learn how to manage property and deal with people, and you'll be licensed to handle sales on the side.

As David indicated, look for properties before you close on the sale of your relinquished property.
