Good and bad happen in each property and they kind of grow on us. 

I will need to minimize the amount of money left in the property so I can continue to grow my portfolio.

I invest in commercial in Omaha and it is for sure a growing market.

You have the option of student rentals, retired couples, and growing number of young families.

The estimated mortgage is cheap enough that even if I didn't have any tenants, it wouldn't really be a financial burden, and would actually be only marginally more expensive than renting commercial space for my growing business.

I can't remember how much it was but I came up slightly short in getting to 20%.I wouldn't recommend this action for many/most but if you're at that age and are SURE (get some 2nd opinions and possibly post the numbers here for sanity check) that this is the deal that will kill it - then you may consider this route.good luck

I don't want to bank on appreciation so I am not considering it but I guess technically I should mention that it's a growing city.

We are expecting it to grow and I am very excited to be doing this.

So I much prefer my properties closer to DC where the rents grow considerably.
