Patrick Thomas Dickinson Sell my primary capturing the equity and investing that money in the stock market
29 July 2024 | 5 replies
My current primary ( scenario 1) Keep the primary for the life of the loan ( current rate is 4.5 so i dont see my self refinancing anytime soon)current home value 1,150,000Loan amount 935,000appreciation estimate 5% per year after a 28 year hold and the house is paid off I would have a house worth 4,312,000$my current mortgage is 6125$ ( piti) included My second option( scenario 2) Sell the house, walk away with $150 ,000 ish in hand and put that into a low cost index fund Rent a house elsewhere for about 3000$ ish and take the extra 3000$ im saving everymonths from not having to pay my mortgage and puting that money in the index fund as well I ran the numbers on both of these scenarios and doing what I mentioned above would break even at about 28 years meaning my stock account would be worth 4.3 million just like my house would , but the only is that holding a house for 28 year would mean 28 years of property taxes, loan interest ,home insurance and repairs etc whick I calculated to be about 1,200,000$ at minimum which raised my eyebrows to say the least Also i understand that each of these options ( stock market vs real estate ) will have there tax consequences ( long term capital gains) so any thoughts on that would be appreciated as well.

Geo Tan Who do your tenants write their checks to for rent?
30 July 2024 | 24 replies
So if the property is in your name and you write a lease in the name of ABC Management that is completely fine since they are synonymous.What you're referencing is standard operating procedure for anyone starting a sole proprietorship who doesn't want to use their own name exclusively.Hopefully I've explained this well.
