Payoff loan balance, refinance or do nothing?
I have a rental property in another state. I have excellent long term renters that pay 1000 per month. I pay biweekly and more than loan principle at 1200. The loan is FHA at 5.875. I know I have net negative cash flow but was looking at things like “someone is paying off the bulk of my mortgage.” payoff date wIth extra Is dec 1 2025. payoff datw with no added prIncIple Is dec 1 2027.
Should I:
1. Decrease payments to a minimum which decreases monthly bleed?
2. Refinance and if so recommended time?
3. Payoff off loan with cash
Thank you for the advice
Jeff

Question number one would be is it in a place where your FHA loan is allowed to continue on this as a rental property, if not you may have no choice but to refinance.
