Additionally, your brother would inherit your cost basis in the property, which could result in significant capital gains tax if he sells the property later.

Making additional payments or taking a shorter term are just depositing more into that savings account (it's not like the property appreciates more by paying down the loan).

In addition to Turbo Tenant, I would suggest that you have a local Realtor list it for rent. 

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.

With the economy of scale in multifamily, each additional unit nets you a little more than the last, as a rule of thumb.

if there is appreciation, but you wouldn’t sell your current home tax free and buy a neighboring home to rent out, (There by raising your cost basis for additional depreciation and lower capital gains tax.) then it probably doesn’t make a good rental property. . 

Am I getting greedy to ask for an additional seller credit at closing to help offset some of repairs needed?
