Should I pay down on this mortgage? Deal from credit union!

Wow you really make lots of sense the way you break things down. Ok now

if you don't mind what about one this situation. I'm currently buying 3

properties and own 1(1 is paid off in full that I have been pulling the

equity out of) and I'm in the process of buying a 4th and then I will

have to be done for awhile (dang this is SO addicting) I am inheriting

$20K so far from my father's estate. One of the 4 properties is the

current place I live in. It's a Duplex and I live in the smaller side of

the property and my daughter and her family live on the other side. The

mortgage payment is $1046.32 and my daughter pays $650 of that. I pay

the rest. Since her rent payment will never get the investment property

paid off should I throw the $20K on that property? And put even more on

the loan as I can? With soon having 4 loans going I'm pretty much down

buying for the moment. We currently live in 1 property, short term rent 2

of the properties and the 4th property we are buying we are inheriting a

long term tenant so will long term rent for now until the tenant leaves

then we will short term rent it. I think I have pushed my limit with

what we can get from our credit union. And with the 4th property costing

more than we have planned I offered to put $75K down on it. (the

proceeds from a property I sold recently) Not sure if I should have done

that but it already set to be paid. I would appreciate your advice!

Update: Deal from credit union!

Hi If you looked to do a $20,000 paydown on the property I can look to get a rate Modification approved from the current 4.87% down to 3.7%. We do have a mandatory $350 modification fee but based on the rate change you would likely make that up in a couple of months. Please let me know if you would like me to look at doing so. So should I take their deal? This was a property I purchased approx a year ago.
