He is trying to decide between the following options:1 - Sell house in MA and use majority of proceeds to pay off high interest debt.2 - Rent out house in MA which would cash flow approximately $300 per month after mortgage is paid.The debt load is credit card debt and fairly significant.

* Greed - The housing market is sky high - jump on your chance to cash in and load up your bank account...* Sloth - Weighted down with endless home projects?

When I have someone apply who is looking at a huge rent increase over what they have been paying I always say something like “you must have a boat load of money saved up!”  

For the C- properties I manage, I don't put much weight into credit scores, I care more about content.

But hay come down the oil is deep and there's money everywhere right now just make sure you have a truck load of money and an exit plan. 

Smash weights or smash some balls.

When I begin construction, I think I'll need an EZ Interior Non Load Bearing Demolition permit and the contractor will get the following permits:-Plumbing Permit-Electrical PermitOnce it's all done, I'll need another rental permit to rent it out.  

Another one is US Bank, who offered me 3.875% but when they dug into my tax returns etc they declined me because my "global" income wasn't high enough for them in relation to my debt load. 

The windows that do open are obviously not connected to the weights anymore.Let me know if you need more info and I appreciate any comments.Chad

I give very little weight to major media.
