I have an investment property fully paid off.
Should I sell it now and buy something similar later for much cheaper?

Capitol gains tax is too high.
Real estate fees are too high.
The market would have to tank so much for it to be worth it.
Most people end up losing when they try and time the market like that. And its a lot of work and stress for something that might not be worth it.
I think the best thing to do is just hold, and keep renting. Use the rental income to save up for a down payment on another rental, our start investing in the market now that its at the bottom.

In all likelyhood it will drop 80% in the coming year. At least put it up for sale and check how much you can get for it. Otherwise just keep it, it should regain its 2019 value around 2029

No fucking way it'd drop this much. 60% max

Real estate value fluctuations are 100% correlated with employment number fluctuations. An incoming 20% unemployment will cause such lack of demand for goods and services that it will cascade into additional 10% unemployment, falling real estate causes yet another additional unemployment and bank failures, etc, etc.

The intent is to have it temporary, and hopefully it becomes true, however, the government with it's intent doesn't have the capability to catch every juggling ball, and enough balls will fall through the cracks and trigger the shit show as if nothing had been saved in the first place.

Realtor fees, moving expenses, massive hassle. Your nuts.

>> No.18294643

Depends. Do you own the property outright? If you can find a sucker to buy at current market valuations then yes, fucking sell, but only to someone who needs to take a loan. In several montha they'll be hueting and you'll be in the perfect position to buy it back at a loss.
Do you have a loan, and need to get this off your books lest you get foreclosed on? Then sell to anyone you can.

Anyway, there's a lot of factors at play and you haven't provided all the information so fuck you.

The damage has been done. We didn’t have a healthy economy before all this. It was running on a razor’s edge with everybody leveraged up the ass to survive. The debt is blowing up, corporate interest rates are rising, the bankruptcies already in motion. Lots of businesses you’re accustomed to won’t be opening up again.

Sell now. Real estate is going to tank once the economic stimulus wears off.
