On the east side, in Redmond, we are currently living in a property worth probably 1.6 with about 600K outstanding - and a monthly payment of about 4K including mortgage, insurance, property taxes etc.Looking to leave the area.Does it make sense to rent it out given that I’ll probably get 4K in rent?
