There is no need to rush your decision just because you have to find a home for that money. 

I am hoping you all might be able to help me sort through a decision to keep our town home as a rental or sell.

We are just finishing up the final three units, so hopefully the decision to go with 5 versus 4 units will bear fruit with future appraisals. 

As with any financial decision, there are many factors to consider to confidently arrive at a decision.

To that I say "good for you", the poor guy's case dragged on for a while, and in his case, the judge didn't throw it out.And why was he sued?

It is not a complex decision...time and money.

In life, anything that seems too good to be true, probably is.one thing I see on that show and I think I have seen them all or pert near all.of course is the slant were the poor investor is portrayed and they should have known 10% or 9% or 11% was too good to be true.. when in fact for a semi educated investor those returns are normal and easy to get in todays world I mean you can just buy good first trust deeds that bring in those returns.I don't see that slant on that show that these folks were being too GREEDY .. now the ones that promised 10% in 60 days that I get .. this is why Maddoff did so well in a negative way of course.. but he never talked about outrageous returns..  

Why would apartments be a bad decision right now?

I spoke to the developer and explained it was just a smart financial decision as I wanted to use that money to acquire additional property.

I have things in place with doing the rehabs and a property manager ready to go but I need to make a decision on where the money will come from.
