Last but not least....A few members in replies have already mentioned why it makes sense to hold…….I very much appreciate ALL FEEDBACK, however I think it will be helpful to provide some added context as to why I am absolutely certain (and my CPA’s are convinced as well) on my decision to liquidate the entire portfolio and onceAs I educate clients on daily, income tax brackets as well as long term capital gain tax brackets in our country are more favorable right now than they've been at any point in the past 80 years.

So I suppose, I'm looking to invest in any area that makes sense with the numbers. :)

If you're younger then it might make a ton of sense to take down anything you can as long as it cash flows. 

I haven't found anything lately that makes sense to hold for cash flow but I will keep trying. 

A coach makes sense if you are 23 and want to increase your skills enough to earn a living with the sport.

If it's not feasible due to circumstances I suppose I'll have to adjust my situation (find weekend job, move back to NJ with parents, move to a different state with, etc.)All responses are appreciated, and I am absolutely open to chatting on the phone by the way.My view on house hacking is it can be a great tool to buy a house you could not  otherwise afford, but it shouldn’t be a goal in it of itself if that makes sense and that’s not to discourage you from investing just there are alternatives such as the stock market. so I’d start by asking where you want to live, do you want to own a single family home or does it make more sense to rent in a more interesting neighborhood like Arlington, Alexandria, that’s gonna be a personal choice, Will your monthly payment actually be less than renting/how many people do you need to get in the house to afford that?

This helps you determine what offer makes sense to you.

If you live in CA investing in Alabama, OH, or TX might not make sense.

In the end, it would have made more sense to hire a couple handymen for a week or two than me spending 3 weeks installing flooring, base and case.

@Van Lam - I think your plan to finish rehab and then rent them out a higher market rents makes sense to do first.
