I'd sell because you are reaching the time when you lose the cap gains exemption and that $24K would take over 2 years of renting to get back.I had a condo that I owned for a long time and I sold it despite it being paid off and having long term tenants. 

Especially these last few years with interest rates being so low for so long, every decent asset class has seen cap rate compression for several years.

We manage 300+ units, I've flipped over 75+ houses in the past 3 years, and I currently own 28 long term rentals.   

As long as there is real estate, there will be scammers.

Why do you think purchase contracts are so long and have such small print?

I wouldn't do them in rougher areas at all, just find long term tenants and background check them the traditional way.

A refi makes more sense if you plan to hold the property long-term as a rental.

If presented with a slightly higher offer many will focus on the price over other terms as long as the settlement period isn't too unreasonable.

Key lessons include choosing markets based on long-term fundamentals (not just affordability), building a strong local team before buying, and starting with manageable properties instead of heavy rehabs.
