@Islah Barney, If your mother was living in that house for 2 years out of the 5 year look back prior to sale, then she can sell and take the first $250K of profit tax free.If the gain is more than $250K then you could rent it for a few more months. 

If you were able to build equity over time, it could be smart to sell, pay off your loan, and use the money for another venture (flip, investments, etc) if it is truly bleeding you out.

You are giving the end buyer of the loan (not the broker) the interest upfront instead of over time therefore you get a lower rate.

Message me your number and I’ll add you to the WhatsApp group we use to share meetup times and places.

We don't have much capital to work with outside the equity in our current home, but should be able to come up with first/last/deposit on a rental without selling.
