Pros & Cons- How to Sell Your Inherited House vs Rent

1) Make sure the mortgage is paid.

When you inherit a house you get the debt too

2) The investment is only as good as the manager.

Bad manager = Bad outcome

3) Property ownership costs money.

Taxes, maintenance, mortgage, insurance

4) Selling a property for top dollar costs money.

6) Uncle Sam wants a piece of the action.

7) Consider all your options.

Do you want to be a landlord or do you want to sell you inherited house fast

8) Compare a few scenarios.
