By purchasing smart with an assumable loan, you will have a lower monthly payment that will have a much better chance to be covered by the rent and could also leave you enough room to pay a property manager (if you choose) to take care of the home if/when you are relocated in the future. 

I added value by redesigning the kitchen and opened up the space by vaulting the ceiling, relocating the stairs, and knocking down some walls.
