Maintenance and potential repairs will also require a long-term financial plan and setting aside a contingency fund for such expenses.The steady cash flow, appreciation over time, and tax benefits can make a meaningful difference to your wealth in the long term, especially with the principal paydown on the mortgage.However, if managing the property from a distance feels too burdensome, or if you’d prefer the certainty and flexibility that comes with having less debt (especially given the high mortgage rates), selling and using the $100,000 in equity to reduce your loan for your next home may be the smarter move.

Hi Dave,The topic is 2 years old which you might not have noticed.Closed at a 7 must have been urban core in a highly desirable area.I am seeing trade at a 9 here with no rent bumps in the primary term.For anyone wondering many tenants are credit tenants.There is a huge difference in that INVESTMENT GRADE tenants are BBB- or higher.The ones below that are considered junk status by many lenders which doesn't make them a bad investment just harder to get financing and more to put down.The dollar stores (there are 3 big brand companies nationally) with other smaller regional knock offs are okay as long as you are not buying in obscure rural locations.The fronts are usually brick facade and the sides are sheet metal.You second and third generational tenant will not have the same per sq ft sales they will leaving you with less of a re-rental return.Having said this I have seen some very nice all brick ones where the city required a certain architecture and look to approve the building permits and process.Those typically run 1 million in price to 1.2 versus the cheaper ones in rural areas at 500k to 800k.
