Quote from @Yianni Hahalis: I'm looking to move to Cleveland within the year and get my foot in the door with real estate.

Tenant 1 moved out five months ago.

Maintenance and potential repairs will also require a long-term financial plan and setting aside a contingency fund for such expenses.The steady cash flow, appreciation over time, and tax benefits can make a meaningful difference to your wealth in the long term, especially with the principal paydown on the mortgage.However, if managing the property from a distance feels too burdensome, or if you’d prefer the certainty and flexibility that comes with having less debt (especially given the high mortgage rates), selling and using the $100,000 in equity to reduce your loan for your next home may be the smarter move.

But none of that has stopped me from moving forward.

The worst is when they don't tell you they are moving out and leave behind enough stuff that you are not sure if they are coming back for it, and they ghost you.  

In the short term this is great, but after moving out of the property, these units would be ~ -$500/month in cash flow.
