Since the mortgage rates have been higher than previous years and the inventory has been lower I'd recommend looking into multi family options that are currently cash flowing in areas that values are increasing.

But keeping the 2.75% interest is definitely something I'd like to keep haha

This is a house that I’d tell others to run from, but since we already own it we’re just trying to determine best options.  

I'd speak with your accountant about the potential tax consequences.

If I've got this wrong, I'd appreciate it if you could point me to the section of Ohio Revised Code or law that says a Seller can't sell the property when there's an earnest money dispute. there is no law . 

I’d have to keep costs low for it to work.

I have heard from people I know near the fires (including one who's house is the only one left on his block in the Palisades and one in a similar situation in Altadena) that smoke damage was not covered by their fire insurance..Hard to say what I'd do in your shoes since it sounds like it's more than a financial investment.

@Joshua Ryan Lindsay If it was me, I'd rent it.

I'd stick with the house rules section of each platform.

I’d love to hear your thoughts!
