They will pay all PITI and repairs while there.

My current primary ( scenario 1) Keep the primary for the life of the loan ( current rate is 4.5 so i dont see my self refinancing anytime soon)current home value 1,150,000Loan amount 935,000appreciation estimate 5% per year after a 28 year hold and the house is paid off I would have a house worth 4,312,000$my current mortgage is 6125$ ( piti) included My second option( scenario 2) Sell the house, walk away with $150 ,000 ish in hand and put that into a low cost index fund Rent a house elsewhere for about 3000$ ish and take the extra 3000$ im saving everymonths from not having to pay my mortgage and puting that money in the index fund as well I ran the numbers on both of these scenarios and doing what I mentioned above would break even at about 28 years meaning my stock account would be worth 4.3 million just like my house would , but the only is that holding a house for 28 year would mean 28 years of property taxes, loan interest ,home insurance and repairs etc whick I calculated to be about 1,200,000$ at minimum which raised my eyebrows to say the least Also i understand that each of these options ( stock market vs real estate ) will have there tax consequences ( long term capital gains) so any thoughts on that would be appreciated as well.  

Separately I have a non paying tenant I am evicting which will cost me c10 months rent but that is another story and buyer beware in dealing with NYC tenancy and housing laws - advice is hire a lawyer from day one of nonpayment.Two questions for the forum:1.

Please advise I (the landlord) should pay for labor and material to cover the area with rocks, or Tenant is responilbe to clean up the area and pay for the labor and material. 2.

Hello Everyone,In the next few months, I'll be in a unique position where I can potentially pay off my house.

A little sacrifice today will pay off big in 10-20 years.1.

So you can find out what they were paying for rent previously, if it was paid on time and go from there.  

There is a small balance that I can pay off with a HELOC from another property I have .

I am thinking about booking.com but it will change how Airbnb pays the fee - from guest to host - so I am not too surw if its worth it. 

I’m not specifically looking for legal advice at this point in time, and when that time comes I’m more than happy to pay for legal services.
