Post: Sell or Hold SFH in Phoenix

Hello All,
I am not able to decide between 2 good problems! To sell or keep it for cash flow?
Below are the stats
Purchase Price $215k
Cosmetic Repairs $10k
Downpayment and closing costs $56k
Monthly cash flow $750
The house is worth about $400k to $425k if listed on market.
Have one cash offer for $390k ( title, closing costs paid by buyer).
Should I keep it or sell it? I am not sure what do wi the sale proceeds! Don't have anything else lined up. Other than some syndication deals in multi families which I don't have control on the operating part.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Chai

Hello,
I was wondering if one can sell a SFH and move that money to a Multifamily Syndication as a passive Investor under 1031 exchange?

There is no capital gains under 1031

I included all of the costs and 1031 exchange provider and added 2 percent more. I have few markets I am looking into for replacement properties. I am also definitely looking at the option of HELOC.

Either sell it under 1031 exchange. Or Cash out refinance or HELOC. But I will be doing something with that equity.

Hello All,
I am visiting Raleigh/Durham area at the end of this month to drive through the neighborhoods and look at the properties for buying at least one or two SFH under $250k in 1031 exchange. I am especially interested in Durham area. This is an investment property so I am looking for areas with potential upside and some decent cash flow of $300. Can you please let me know which neighborhoods to check out in Durham area?
Also, I am looking to connect with a investment friendly realtor in these areas. Someone who owns investment properties in these areas, quickly run the numbers , guide me through the neighborhoods. Please feel free to message and connect.

@Chai Jonn I'm a huge proponent of Helocs, and more specifically a very specialized Heloc that saves cost and increases flexibility.
My wife and I ReFi'd our rental into a 1st position Line of Credit that's tied to a zero balance sweep checking account. So every dollar we deposit is swept towards the remaining balance, saving us interest cost. Every dollar also increases our credit line to pull from, maximizing flexibility. I always recommend this loan to investors, as our clients love recycling their line multiple times over the 30 year term, allowing them to purchase and pay off multiple properties, all with one loan.
Helocs are also nice because that equity is there when you're ready to use it, but you don't have to lock yourself into 30 years of larger payments on day one.
Justin, Thanks for explaining sent you a message

Sounds Good Paul
