A lot more than my PITI costs combined.The condo charges a $250 sublet fee for renting out my unit; That would bring my total monthly expense over $2600; Based on what I researched I could get for rents in this area, not sure I can get $2600; Even if I could I would just be breaking even with no cash flow; Wont include amount needed for potential vacancy; The sublet fee kills my flexibilityDecision - Sell CondoProsWould probably get top dollar on sale of home selling now; if there is a downturn it can be MANY years before I can get the money I would be able to get now (anticipate $425k to $450k)Sell and use part of the money to buy new home for myself and/or use the money on alternate investment(s)Keep the money liquid for opportunities that come up in the next 1 to 2 yearsFree myself from the politics of the condo board and how the complex operates; A lot of the issues are financial in that over the years money has been collected and not well managed or spent which is why HOA fee is so high; this provides a level of inflexibility on managing expenses which I have limited control overConsDon’t have that much left on mortgage; selling now would mean investing elsewhere via new long term mortgage at todays higher interest rates (albeit at smaller mortgage amt since I would be able to put down a larger down pymt); Additionally, at todays market prices, I would not be able to get a unit like this one for the price I paid over 2 decades ago and for the interest rate I have nowI have been wanting to build a real-estate portfolio and my thought has been that this would be my 1st unit in that portfolio and I should keep it & build from there; Selling would mean starting from scratch instead of building; However is this Condo Unit really a good investment?

As long as the quality of the tenants are available to the location of the investment, you were certainly able to capture the profit from the Amortization of a fixed Rate Mortgage.Over the decades, my pro-forma models have proved this to be a very compelling reason and time has proven it to be both accurate and profitable.This Exercise will teach you a lot about Investing in General and you will have a huge advantage over someone that only knows a single way of analyzing just one specific investment or using one specific calculation.Continue the good work!
