If you aspire to have rental properties you might like the financial benefits of keeping your existing house as a rental when you buy your next primary residence, if that's an option for you.Primary residence home mortgages have a lower interest rate than investment mortgages traditionally, so by buying your next primary residence and hanging on to your old one, you get to keep your lower interest rate on both properties.

It's a business, if you find some is abusing it financially (not paying rent) or physically (damages),, you push the envelope and write up a lease violation and if necessary evict.. doing regular inspections let's you bill tenant for undue damages when they occur.. and yet still have the deposit left to help when they leave.If you haven't yet,, download copy of the landlord tenant laws for your state.. 

So, my opinion (Not legal or financial advice) is, do whatever you need to do to put money in the bank so you can make this a cash transaction.
