Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

I just need to figure out if I should sell my rental now given I dont understand how it benefits me at all. 1) I would not say the rental losses are going to waste, since even if they are passive they can carry forward and offset other passive gains in the future. 2) They game of real estate is "buy, borrow, die" and it sounds like you are in this property for a good rate.

Since then, I've had a baby and now am pregnant with my second and I miss my extended family, so I'm considering selling the land and moving home but I want to be smart about it.I'm looking at marketability, value opinions per forested acreage for the area, and whether this kind of property is selling in the area lately or if we're better off holding it for a while. 

After reading you post and profile I am gathering that you are flipping as well as long term holding.

By partnering with experienced sponsors and staying informed about market trends, you can make informed investment decisions regardless of timing.Don't let these excuses hold you back from leveraging the power of limited partnership in real estate.
