Sounds like you got a pretty good deal going on right now and your able to make quite an income with your current job with minimal monthly expenses i presume so a mortgage payment that you can afford (do the math beforehand ) wouldn't be the end of the world for your income especially if you had BOTH places rented out.

Hi @Brant Richardson - here's how the math breaks down ... and I'm assuming that you're adding $X to the first loan and then once it's paid off you're adding the PI from loan 1 and $X to the loan 2 payments...Assume you have 2 loans with different rates (balance doesn't matter) ... paying off the higher interest rate first allows you to pay them both off fastest.Assume you have 2 loans with the same rate but different balances ... it doesn't matter which one you pay off first, it'll take the same amount of time to pay them both off.If I were you, I'd order them by the interest rate, start with the highest one first and then just work my way down the list.

The condo is not the most valuable property I own, the duplex is pretty far down the list.I'm mentioning these numbers because they're important to my perspective on this topic -- housing is often extremely cheap in my area, and the math really never works out right for renting.But even if I were in your shoes, I would live in the cheapest possible shack I could find to own if I were you, anything that would make the homeownership math work, in preference to any sort of nicer property that I would rent.
