This level of scrutiny drastically reduces the risk of renting to unreliable tenants.Realtors vs.

If your current lender is open to restructuring, you could negotiate better terms (lower rate or extended term).

If I can park the 388k ($415-27k) for one year at CD rate of 4.5% and then est 300k (after paying cap gain/depr recap) at 3.0% (assume CD rates lower) that interest income of about 24 months net of ordinary income tax is about the same as my current mortgage.Trying to play devil's advocate and think why selling this year does not make sense. 

I get better investment options and lower expense ratio through my Roth IRA.
