How to escape my situation! 2 condos, 1 job.
I'm married here in Florida with a stay at home mom and a 3 year old son. I bought a condo for $300k that is now worth $155k at best. We live in that condo. My wife owns a condo that she paid $155k for that is now worth around $80k. Our mortgage + HOA fees on that unit run around $1,050 a month and we have a tenant paying us $850 (so we lose $200/mo on it). My wife's condo was purchased with county assistance before we were married--they paid $25k toward the condo and that has to be paid in full (even if we short sale) in order to get out.
We have roughly $40k in the bank without any debt other than the mortgages.
I make $90k/yr in my job but desperately need out. We need a house but simply cannot figure out how to escape this situation.
Any ideas?
