Why lease rather than sell your house?

Because it is economically sensible to do so. Here are five considerations:

The most difficult part of investing in real estate is asset acquisition. It is expensive in terms of both time and money. So if you own a house, you have already accomplished the tough part. The other part of it is simply managing the asset. If you have neither time nor the inclination to manage, you can hire this part out to a professional property management company.
You will enjoy the short-term tax benefits of depreciation and operating expense deductions.
You will probably enjoy a little positive cash flow in the early-years and perhaps a substantial cash flow in the out-years.
You will enjoy the long-term benefits of property value appreciation.
Throughout the investment holding period your value is protected and you can draw against it with a home equity line of credit if necessary. Over the past 200 plus years real estate has proven to be the most secure form of investment in the United States.

We were so fortunate in choosing Brenna to sell my mom's home. She went through the house and made suggestions as to where we should make updates, that were not overly expensive, but that greatly enhanced the home. These updates made it possible to get top dollar. We had multiple offers within 3 days of listing. She is available 24/7 and is on top of everything in the process to provide a smooth, quick transaction.

Dealing with Dan has been a very good experience. He brings personalization and total involvement and carefulness to the process. He dots all the I's and makes sure the T's are crossed. He also brings a wealth of quality personal experience from both the sales and buying sides. Great to have on your team!

Several years ago Dan helped us look for a lakefront home on Lake Lanier. Dan did his research and showed us many interesting properties, spending many hours with us viewing each of the choices. Dan also helped us in the sale of our home in Roswell, as well with property management for a friend's townhouse that we referred to him.

You are in a situation where you must purchase another home and you do not have the financial standing to either pay all cash, or to financially qualify for a purchase money mortgage. In this case, the cash assets from the sale of your home may be necessary to make the down payment.*
You have lost your source of income. Consequently, due to your inability to pay the mortgage, retaining the property would threaten your credit standing.
You are either approaching retirement or already retired, and wish to enjoy the fruits of your labor. In this case you are no longer interested in portfolio growth.
You have discovered a better investment opportunity for your cash.

*Note: There is an alternative for obtaining down-payment cash so that you can keep the asset as a rental. If you have substantial equity in the home, and interest rates are favorable, you may be able to do a cash out re-finance. You might also be able to obtain a home equity line of credit; if the combined payments on the first mortgage and the line of credit do not severely, negatively impact the cash flow on the rental.
