Landon H. Sell my house or Refi and rent out?
4 July 2013 | 4 replies
To be honest, I try not to depend on speculation, but I don't think we're done growing out here by a long shot and my location is pretty dang good.One main point that I'll also make, is that my expenses are HUGE living here by myself, so moving out would significantly reduce my monthly expenses by at least 300/month, if not much more, depending on if my gf lets me move in with her ;-) I would also pay off my credit card debt which costs me $250/month.To summarize with conservative figures:Refi with remodel- I break even monthly, left with under 20K to investRefi without remodel- I have negative cash-flow monthly, but left with about 30K to investSell- No cash-flow or appreciation possible, left with 35K to investMy main questions are, do my numbers make sense, and does owning a negative cash-flowing property make sense at all?
