billionaire getbbigers needed here:
say you got 100k in da bank
you own a home, but are looking to buy a new one.
do you:
sell your house and pocket the profit (its gone up about 100k since buying), and use that as your down payment on the new house?
or, buy the new one with ur bank acct money for the down payment and make your current house a rental property (can probably rent it with a 800 dollar profit, monthly).
honestly, im leaning to renting it out, but giving up half of cash nest egg is hard to stomache

u dont give enuff details
but if u sell the house ,every dollar made must go into the purchase of da new house 2 avoid an extra tax called capital gains tax , its 25%

you are penalized if u dont invest every dollar from the sale , another shitty law

Never touch your nest egg

What silk said. But other than that do you have other debt? (CC, car payments, student loans, etc)

Didn't realize your rented apartment will gain equity.

First option. Would never use a house as a rental unless I had it 100% paid off. You need to calculate risk.

Don't bother with single unit rentals unless you live in an upscale area. Use what you make on the sale of your current place (less your required down payment on the new property) and put it toward a down payment on a multi-unit rental. That's if you want to get into rental properties.

1. Dont go on muscle forums and ask financial advices.
2. Dont touch the nest egg is right, and don't acquire any more debt.
HTH

Don't buy anything else until you own everything you've got. Zero debt is the name of the game.

If choose the rental option, I rent out my first house which pays the mortgage on that property and 75% of the mortgage payment on my home and is better than any pension plan.

Being a landlord blows in the best of circumstances. If you haven't done it before, caveat emptor.

gotta say the responses here are almost exact opposite of other sites i read
i suppose we have unique things that make the rental appealing
-upscale urban area in VA, we got in very cheap and home value went up alot
-two incomes
-proximity to would-be rental is very close, so no property mgmnt needs
-yes we do not own the house we would be selling. no other debt though
-rental price keeps college kids and riff raff out, so i dont expect much issue there (i do worry about how my house gets treated).

rent the current home and find a way to put as little down on the new home (based on the payment you can afford)

Sell both and buy gold and oil.
Two Getbig staples that are the backbone of any respectable high net worth individual.
