Rent was earning me $950/month and was paying 12% on property management since i live 3/4 of the country away...Last month i owed 34k on the loan still, but the last comparable property in the same property area sold for 139k prior to the fire, with the townhouse being rebuilt new here within the next year, i expect the value to increase with the updates in the rebuild...Just wanted to get some input on situation, im financially able to cover this $505/month easily, but i feel like there is something i could be doing to offset this and figured the creative minds on here would help me out.

If the HAVC stops working it will be hard to sell since it is summer.Keep in mind that you are making the mortgage payment on the property while you are looking for a buyer.

On a side note, this activity boggles my mind.

I live in Pembroke Pines, FL and am looking forward to network with like-minded people in the South Florida area. 

I would keep building slowly if it were me keep in mind that selling with an agent would cost you 6% of the sale price, you would also want to do a 1031 exchange to minimize taxes which makes the process more difficult because you will have a time constraint to get everything sold and buy something new. 

Ok....do you have a team in mind to help you? 

It ain't going to be a walk in the park but there's no better feeling than pursuing something passionately in hopes of finding greener pastures.If you're looking to network with like-minded and hungry for success people, you're in the right place. 

However, I certainly don't mind doing physical labor, just not a lot of construction stuff.

If you're getting a refund of some of those funds, that portion would be taxable.Keep in mind that the full proceeds of your sale should be invested in the property(ies) you 1031 exchange into. 

Keep in mind I am looking for a low cost broker (no desk fee, monthly fee) given that this will not be my full time job.
