Hi Everyone, Background:I own a tri-plex in los angeles... rent controlled.. one of the tenants lived there when i acquired the property.. his rent is 750.00 - current rate is approx 3k He has full access to the only Garage on the building, an additional parking spot, and a great size yard...

Additionally, a portion of the first floor was observed to be sagging.

I know that area pretty well and this property is a great addition!

Either that or find a lender that will let you keep the separate loans (rather than paying for additional closing costs) and cross collateralize them on a line of credit.

I believe this will drive down their prices as additional A-Class units come online and vacancies creep up.

In addition, I also further evaluated rents in that area and unfortunately, I had those a bit too high.

Buy what makes sense for you in the CURRENT market; those who roll the dice looking for appreciation, or buy high today hoping the market will make that below-average investment a prize winner seldom last.Remember, "prices will always continue to go up, they never go down!?!

What additional information do I need to consider in determining if I should sell or hold? 

The Downside on the Duplex is there isn't much value add. It's
