If I were in your shoes I would strongly consider selling it.If it is really not an option for you to sell, then your second best option in my opinion is to wait for one of the leases to expire, get an FHA loan, and move into the unit.

Have a strong math and economics background and am a licensed insurance broker and real estate agent.

I've been doing this for 9 years and have built up a strong repeat and referral network. 

@Ray HarrellA co-worker (we aren't real close) but a solid guy with a strong income.

The map seems to be a strong base but definitely fine tune it with advice from some boots on the ground wouldn’t you say?

Markets that not only have good cash flow but also strong economic and demographic trends will offer the best long term returns.

As I mentioned I would strongly consider adding a third bedroom to the other unit if the current tenant is to move to increase rent as well.

I'm strongly considering removing him.The catch here is that I am a licensed real estate agent, but I have never actually used it to represent myself in a sale (I've always just used it for referrals).

As if I wasn't feeling bad enough, I almost didnt even tell him at that point because I felt so guilty but somehow I was strong enough & told him the rent was going up $40 - He immediately said 'WHY' and I told him listen insurance/taxes went up for the last 2 years & I have been taking the loss but I cant take the loss alone anymore. 

After talking to many brokers and property managers I did not felt there is a strong rental market.
