Th me reason I’m taking this thread I own a property and I wanna keep it and purchase another home. I’m just looking at the market people paying this much to rent somewhere. Anything over 1500 in the south is criminal. Where do you see the housing market going. I might just sell it.

Someone presented me with an opportunity to buy a property with the idea of me renting it out, but with the HOA fees there was no way it was good investment.

To answer your question, the housing market will continue to be sellers' market if you are in or near a metropolitan area. If you live in an area that is seeing a population decrease trending over time than you will be taking on some risk, but even then, you will probably continue to rise.

People payin 2000+ to rent property. The avg family can’t afford that. Even the homes in the hood kinda steep.

Really? That's perfectly reasonable for a married couple. That's only a thousand each. you'd have to be a bum to be unable to raise that amount.

If the same pair of people were single, they'd be paying much more than that separately.

Yeah but you’re never going to really own it. 2000 is a lot to throw away for something you never going to own you can get a mortgage for cheaper and put the remaining in your home.i just look at things different.

It depends on the rental prices for similar options in that area.

Depending on the market, interest rates and how much you put down, maybe not.

Op, what would your profit margin be in percentages if you rented.. if you scrapping by or have to pay out of pocket each month it's not really good business.. But I don't know your situation or goals either

What do the numbers say?

Here’s what I would be looking at:

Cash flow? After having factored in PITIA, vacancy’s, management fees, cap ex and maintenance. If I’m cash flowing and it’s appreciating, then I likely keep it. Unless you need the equity for down payment.

I’m selling it if it doesn’t cash flow after all the expenses I mentioned.
