Please help me with making an educated decision. Should I sell my property or keep it?
Before joining REIN, I bought my very first property: 444 & 442 Catharine St N in Hamilton (about two years ago).
$320k was my purchase price and currently owe $270k at Manulife's 5 year fixed 2.67 % interest rate
$120k in renovations of which I currently still owe $50k in credit card debt
$520k appraised value
$70k potential profit since 25% of the selling expenses are covered by my employer who's moving me to Ottawa this summer
$1300 monthly mortgage
$1400 monthly expenses include hydro, gas, water, insurance, taxes, internet.
$4000 monthly income once I rent out my unit as well
$1300 positive monthly cash flow
Zoning Verification stated the following: It appears that this is one building; as such, a total of four residential units, is considered a multiple dwelling which is not permitted. Building Division records indicate the last recognized use is a building containing a single family dwelling at (442) which is permitted and a retail (variety) store at (444) which may be considered legally established non-conforming provided this use has continuously existed since prior to 29 Aug 1961 until present.
