Quote from @Brandon Vukelich: Question: why would you sell an asset that generates a profit today and will generate a more significant profit in the future?

I know the grass is not always greener on the other side, but any tips on finding my next market?

If rates become more favorable in the future, we'll have an opportunity to refinance.Why we bought itThe 55-unit I mentioned earlier is a perfect comp for us.

I think over the foreseeable future we will see this continue due to rising prices in those markets like California and New York.

Then, if you can trend over time you'll want to see where the "path of progress" is going/moving and attempt to buy in that path of progress to gain some appreciation in the future.

Thank you and to you as well with your future endeavors. 

As I've come to terms with this I have taken the last five months to regroup and really think about the future which brings me to my post and what I'd like to get the communities opinion on.I successfully negotiated and acquired one of my duplexes in 2017 that I nearly have paid off (note balance is $54k, property value $230k).

Hello,I am interested in purchasing a recently renovated $195K property as a 'secondary' home for the next 4 years to use as a future LTR.

Future enhancements include the planned Silver Line rail alignment with nearby stops, as well as potential commuter bus services, pedestrian paths, and bike lanes.The development benefits from proactive rezoning by the city, transitioning the land from industrial to mixed-use urban development.

In the future, either get your Real Estate License so you have access to the MLS, or make friends with a realtor so they can get you comps to get an ARV.
