.😎)My question is...do I keep this house, have someone pay off the mortgage for me within 10yrs ( assuming i do not refinance and ensure the extra down payments happen monthly and yearly to shorten the duration).

@Brian Adzadi I like your point of how much extra you could be pushing into investments without the debt.

They do what may be more efficient for them but not necessarily the owner (I.e. replace versus troubleshoot and repair) or do what makes them more money (extra turnover work that isn't necessary). 

At that time you'll have more data on what is current market rent, which may be higher or lower than what you are assuming now based upon a single competitive rental.But being $100/mo below market rent may be no problem (worth it); if you've got a good (trouble free) tenant - as you can easily lose many times that in a turnover.

This is more of a strategic play for the future and I don't have time to pick up many extra properties unless they are very close.

When one of our clients asked for specifics we dug into the data.

This house has an extra two car garage, and a huge lot, so we were hoping that would be a plus.

Once you get all of your data together, present an offer based on those numbers and be willing to share that information so they understand the lower offer.

This data, or lack thereof, will tell you a lot about both parties. 

I'd read this article before you do anything, including the comments (lots of extra info)-https://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2013/08/1...Just so you know all of the implications of going the LLC route, especially if you live in CA.Hope that helps!
