Our property manager is really aggressive and doing all she can, but we're going on 3 months at this point and we need to get these units rented.Link to one of the units listed- https://www.trulia.com/building/3640-reading-road-1-3640-rea...

If the answer is yes, then it's a no brainer to make minimum payments on your 2.8% interest rate mortgage, and use the funds that you would have paid extra to pay it down faster, to either invest in more real estate, the market, or anywhere else where you can get a ROI > 2.8%.If the answer is no, then feel free to aggressively pay it down as fast as possible, to become debt-free faster, and just have a large amount of money in savings or to splurge with.The bottom line is that your 2.8% mortgage is GOOD debt.

Check your state laws on tenant abandonment - then follow them.You can choose to be more aggressive, but make sure you understand the risks!
