Since real estate tends to have a lower correlation with the stock market, it can serve as a stabilizing asset during economic downturns.

The question you should ask yourself is Where do I see myself living and raising a family, and that's where you move or stay.CongratsGino

I'm currently renting to a section 8 tenant in NYC and I've decided I won't be renewing the lease once it expires next summer.

They are a huge fire hazard.And a shop vac is not gonna do it unless it's a really short duct.

I am still unsure if I truly want to hire a property manager, or if its something I can do myself. 

My complex is in an area that has some sketchy 4Plexes and apartments around it.

Apparently there are some cities in LA County like Santa Monica and Inglewood which do not allow this.How do you check which cities allow/disallow SB 567 "just cause" eviction through "substantial remodels?"

I bought it in 2017, and move out January 2021.

Do most people charge a set amount or is it better to go with a percentage of the rent?  

Daniel,Seems you do have a lot, it seems there are a lot of "predictions" to values / costs increasing in there, one thing i saw is that you have loan Interest payments/ cost increasing every year too, if you have a fixed loan those costs will not increase, they will decrease and your Principal payments will increase.
