You can use this property to hedge any others that you add that may only cover themselves, or require supplement until they are paid off.HOWEVER, if you have decided that your goal is to use Real Estate as a stepping stone to build wealth by upgrading the property you hold each time (condo to house, house to 4-plex, 4-plex to 8 unit, etc) then I think you are right to sell now while you think the property is at the top of it's appreciation.It will be hard for anyone on BP to tell you what to do as we don't know your goal.You are right. 

Purchase price: $232,500 Cash invested: $45,000 Beautiful fully renovated Shore Acres 2/1.This house really stands out on the block with the new bright paint scheme!

From my experience working with over 400 investors, I’d recommend starting with house hacking—ideally a fourplex if you find a good deal, but a duplex works too.

This house is only worth what comparable sales say it is worth.This is how it will be appraised.

@Christine VasquezHow high can housing prices in the City of Detroit go?

The one negative is with multiple tenants in a house is potential for conflict among each other but could be reduced by screening all of them well. 

This sounds like a house hack???

I bought an old condo, and had my handyman and his guys went to do some work at house.

You can buy a rental house, put $60,000 down and you will have to get a non-recourse loan for the rest of the mortgage.

Example: You find a house and the seller needs $100,000 for it.
