Moving in 4 years and not sure if I should just reline the flue and hope the furnace lasts until we sell; bite the bullet and replace the furnace with a heat pump; or reline the flue and replace with another oil furnace.

@Braden Heard start farming & growing your personal network to find deals that you can start out wholesaling, then flipping, then buy & hold as rentals to build wealth.Per this NY Times article, the average American knows around 600 people.https://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/19/science/the-average-american-knows-how-many-people.html#:~:text=The%20average%20American%20knows%20about,do%20you%20know%20named%20Kevin%3FPer the US Census Bureau, the average American moves 11.7 time in their life, which based upon an approximate lifespan of 84 years, works out to be about every 7 years.https://www.census.gov/topics/population/migration/guidance/calculating-migration-expectancy.html#:~:text=Using%202007%20ACS%20data%2C%20it,one%20move%20per%20single%20yearSo, if the average American knows 600 people and they each move about every 7 years, that means that the average American knows around 85 people that move in any given year.How many of those moves do you want to be involved in?

@Eileen L.Generally it's right if you can grow you income or equity by moving into a different asset type.

If you moved and took the equity to a new property could you be making more? 

Our current housing situation is that we are house hacking by house-sitting for our snowbird mom (so we basically have no housing payments), and we are looking to stay that way until we have to move (5-10 years?).

These sellers typically want a fast sale to move on with their lives and avoid ongoing conflicts.Relocating SellersPeople who need to relocate for a new job, military deployment, or other personal reasons often seek a quick sale to avoid the burden of managing a long-distance property.Inherited PropertiesHeirs who inherit a property they don't want to maintain or manage may be eager to sell quickly.

I would also not keep the cameras when a tenant moves in, not sure if that's allowed but even if it is that would be weird and scare off people.

Looking forward to connecting with investors alike and building meaningful relationships within the industry. 

Population is growing aggressively and jobs are moving here especially with major employers like Intel, Google, Amazon, Nationwide, etc.

My tenants lease is up and they notified me that termites are in the house the same day they moved out.
