Hello in 2021 my partner and I bought an apartment in FL.The main purpose of the apartment was to invest our money to have it saved for our son to go to college.We have been renting this apartment to a family member who has been paying less than what we pay for mortgage and HOA,so we have been taking money out of pocket to cover expenses and so on.I decided that even thou the purpose of buying it was for college,I’ve had enough taking money out of my pocket to pay the HOA and expenses.My question is if I should sell this apartment or if it would be worthy in the long run to keep it and meanwhile just keep paying the HOA and expenses.Renting it to another person is not an option.

You would pay tax on 2/5ths of the gain. 

My understanding is that we'd pay $1,000 for a rent appraisal which would have to come in with a ratio of at least 1.0 (i.e. at least as much rent as PITI) for the loan to be approved.My concern is that 730sf is basement, and only 300sf of that is fully finished. the rest is just walls.

However after watching many folks on YouTube and following their advice I have since my first month been able to pay all the bills with bookings.

but the $7000 to pay off the vehicle will only save me about $600 in interest whereas investing that 7k into another home or renovations, like adding a new bathroom to my current 3bed 1bath home, would yield way more than the money saved.

The buyer will agree to pay some monthly amount higher than the market rent, to offset the cost of the property when the purchase happens.

I did pay the mortgage.

@Carlo D.Paperstac@Brett Burky did not even have to pay me to say this

I'd also add, you need to be sure they can pay and have some savings put away.
