I’m extremely stressed and wondering if I should just cut ties and sell when the remodel is complete to find a simpler cut and dry investment.

This will not trigger a tax and voila! 

Simply allocate the proceeds into as many down payments as you can find/qualify for.One of the ways my clients are using to start to mitigate risk in a  maturing market and yet leave your powder dry and options open is what I call defensive investing. 

Just make sure the numbers work when you decide to pull the trigger.

I would expect more people to have their finger on the trigger, ready to pull their money out of the market on a pin drop.

you made eye contact with the pit on a walk and "triggered" the pit.    2. 

I listed for the guests knowledge and Josh and Brandon were what made it less dry.

@Alan Fang Heat pumps/mini-splits are better than gas, which is better than oil, which is better than electric baseboards.However, with the high demand for housing in the Boston market, you'll always find a tenant, so I'd do a careful cost/benefit analysis before pulling the trigger on a gas conversion.

Now that we are here, we are considering “drying up” one of the units to make it a 4 unit with us in one of them.  

@Frank Wong Thank you, yes this will be my first investment and I’m nervous as hell which is why I haven’t pulled the trigger.
