That is the question. What exactly is “the next several years.” I need an exact number to calculate this hold vs sell analysis. Is it 2, 5, 10??? Will rents increase/ decrease in next “several years”? Your guess is as good as mine. Mix our predictions with with the Fed’s plans and who knows.
The good thing about being a landlord is that I don’t mind dealing with my tenant (but, he’s pretty great) and I married into a family of contractors, so repair work can get completed fairly cheaply. If I decide to keep it, I will almost certainly get my RE license and work the required hours to write off as many losses as possible. This may help some…
