Here is how I determine if I’m going to keep a flip as a “Buy & Hold” or Sell it to an end buyer.

I got into Real estate to achieve financial freedom and support/start my family!

If it was me I would either sell now or hold it for five more years.

Its much faster to communicate/discuss with others, e.g. my realtor and supporting trades.  

It is an old home built in the 20s and we have some sloping and sagging floors that were reported in our initial inspection but was wrote off as "probably due to long term settlement" so I didn't do too much more looking into it as I felt anything major would have been reported in the inspection (mistake #1) We have since been living there, and planned on BRRRRing and hold the property long term.

But the difference is with a REIT, you own shares in a company holding many assets, and they are liquid.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

Any direction and support would be helpful? 

@Merritt HarrisThere are a lot of people who like passive note investing.I can outperform all these note holders by finding deals to buy and hold and I get the appreciation.

Long term hold appreciation investors primarily only have bragging rights.
