There has been some hesitation for me to sell due to the fact the rental market here is averaging $2,500 in rent for my area and property, I make great money now and have funds to cover vacancy and repairs on the home, but I would like to be able to afford a nice rental for my fiance and I to live in while we save for our primary residence.Shoild I sell and take my profits (60-70k net) and throw into an investment closer to where I will be living or should I rent, cash flow and build equity in the property. 

I have heard time and time again that a primary residence is not considered a good investment if you really look at the numbers.
