I keep changing my mind about what to do!
DM sadly passed away a few months ago and left everything to my sister and me, including her house.
Dsis does not want us to rent the house out together, but she would be prepared to sell her half to me. Due to the rest of my inheritance from DM, I would just about be able to do this without a mortgage.
A quick look on rightmove tells me the house would rent for roughly 300 per month. Obviously, I would have expenses to take out of that. Plus, the house would be sitting there, (hopefully) increasing in value.
The alternative to this is to sell mum's house, pay off my own mortgage and extend my own home. I would love to be mortgage free and to have an extension but having a second property seems too good an investment to miss.
What shall I do?!?
