[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I have a rowhouse in Shaw we bought in 2011 for around 600k. Houses on our block are now selling for 900k. We have one toddler now and the house is great, but if we add to our family in a few years, we will likely need to move somewhere larger. We've got about 125k saved now for our next down payment and are saving a little more than 3k/month to that fund. We could increase the monthly savings if we needed to, so we could probably manage a down payment on a new house without the proceeds from the row house. Would you hang on to the row house as an investment? Husband thinks we can manage it ourselves, but we are two busy working professionals and will possibly have two kids at the time, so I want to hire a property manager. It is three bedrooms with parking, I am guessing we could get around 4k in rent, mortgage is $2186. What would you do?[/quote]
