Rent Out vs. Selling: 3 Facts to Help You Decide

The coronavirus pandemic ravaged our economy and left many people without a steady income. This created a lot of uncertainty in the future of various sectors across the country, among them the real estate and rental industry. Without a sustainable source of revenue, tenants couldn’t pay rent which left the landlord in a dilemma on whether to sell the property or maintain it as a rental. With most property owners on the fence, 3 Options Realty can help make the wise decision. We believe that the answer to whether you should sell lies in your long-term goals, and a property management company has the experience and expertise to offer advice and guidance on the matter. Consider the following factors before making up your mind.

Rent Out vs. Selling: 3 Facts to Help You Decide

Passive Income

A significant return on investment (ROI) is the main reason for becoming a landlord. With home prices and rent pricing escalating yearly, the real estate and rental market are showing no sign of stopping. As the country returns to normalcy, landlords want to get the most out of their rentals to get back what they lost during the coronavirus pandemic. As a result, rental property owners seek the services of reputable property managers to help turn their investments into reliable sources of passive revenue.

Are you planning to rent out your property? While the internet provides numerous rental sites to help find a price that aligns with the market, we conduct continuous research to keep us updated on minor and significant changes that impact rent pricing. One common area most landlords usually make mistakes is knowing what to charge for rent. We recommend charging more than your mortgage payment and expenses for optimal growth in the long run.

Long-Term Game

Selling your property over the list price sounds like a good idea, but waiting to sell it later is even better. The longer you wait to sell increases property value, and renting out allows you to grow your equity while turning a profit. Playing the long-term game by choosing to withhold from selling allows you to make more money. Industry experts forecast a low housing supply in 2022, despite the surge in demand as young millennials enter the market.
