Generally speaking, a primary residence shouldn't be considered an investment, as the cash flow is always going to be $0 in the best case (and if you purchased hoping for appreciation, you were just gambling).So, assuming you like your house, plan to live there long-term and it's paid off, why be concerned with the short-term valuation?

General consensus around here that I have seen is that:Buy and hold guys don't want the liability of a tenant getting sick or claiming to get sick from exposure to some area that missed treatment, or the soil in the yard if it has some unknown contamination.And flippers aren't willing to gamble that they got it waaay low enough to take the back end discount that they will need to likely take to get a end buyer to purchase.That is what I've seen pretty much every time this question has been posed in the past.

If this 15k is only out of 400,000 in cash you have to invest then it is a under 4% gamble if it's non recourse of your total liquid available funds.
