When planning or contemplating Seller Finance do not start with an anticipated discount.  

I contemplated removing garbage and let it pile out).

Below, from Mark Lynas' book 6-degrees...so I don't think its "silly" to be trying to contemplate/prepare for these factors, especially if you're doing buy and hold investing that you will be "cashing out" at retirement in 30-50 years from now.In 2001, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a landmark report projecting average global surface temperatures to rise between 1.4 degrees and 5.8 degrees Celsius (roughly 2 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit) by the end of this century.

Perhaps in my eagerness for feedback I posted this under the wrong sub.Pete, I have contemplated selling and reinvesting in another property though at this point Im against it.

I've contemplated this question many times (believe I've made a few posts about it).  

I have been contemplating something similar to you, only we're thinking of doing a Reverse 1031 (where you buy the replacement properties before selling the relinquished property - still all has to be done within 180 days, but then you're not rushed to buy something after your rental sells). 

One of my chief concerns when contemplating this investment was the rising interest market that we are entering.

In this scenario, we have contemplated a new build.

Contemplating if I want to remove the aluminium siding or not.

Disclaimer: I am currently only an investor and do not have my license but have been contemplating the different options.
