Thanks for the replies guys,I actually messed up the numbers a bit, revenue will be 37 200$ so resale value puts me at roughly 521 000$To be honest, I didn't really have a goal when I bought it 4 years back, my parents were divorcing and it was offered to me with a 100 000$ rebate, so I just jumped on it and told myself id figure something out.221 000$ dollars of equity later and 1 year working in the middle east ( the 150 000$ coming in this year) put me in the financial position that I am in now, except that now I don't wanna stay passive anymore since this cash could work for me much more efficiently than it currently does.Appreciation will keep being good for a while: 2 university campuses just opened 3 minutes from my places, 2 subway stations, 1 light rail line, access to major highways 1 minute away, and a whole new downtown area is also being built ( I live in a city of 350 000 people next to a major city of about 2 million)My real concern is leaving 321 000$ sitting in a building and not working for me.

For example, I'm selling a few gas stations right now. 

They will pay a premium to be within an easy commute of their job in an apartment run by a landlord they feel they can trust and who's prompt and professional on maintenance, even in a poor neighborhood.A top reason a pocket neighborhood forms is a police station.

On your listing you'll probably end up writing (x minutes from y station, z minutes from ohare, etc)

Also, I have family in College Station, TX and it seems like they have a healthy rental market.

I am in need of a contractor that can do a larger patio with colored and stamped concrete in the Bryan / College Station (BCS, Brazos County) area.Any referals would be greatly appreciated.

I decided to buy a foreclosure (HUD) live in it initially while we were stationed there, and then turn it into a rental.

I am currently renting a unit that I love and is in an incredible location, floor to ceiling window views of Arlington National cemetery, 0.5 mile to metro station (two lines), two floors, 2 bdrms, 2.5 bths, parking, storage, access to monuments/parks...all the things that would make an excellent future rental but also is perfect for me now while I build my career in the city.

I moved my family here in 1993, when I was transferred to what was then Naval Air Station Miramar.  

Property is a half a block away from the town center (train station etc).
