Options When Selling a Rental Property

Selling a rental property in Abington can be as easy as putting up a For Sale sign and listing it on the MLS, or it could be more complicated if you have tenants with a current lease. Depending on your county’s regulations for dealing with an occupied rental, you’ll need to check to make sure that you are up to date with current county, city, and state regulations before listing a property for sale. But you do have options.

Waiting for the Tenant’s Lease to Expire

If you’re in no rush and have time, waiting for the Tenant’s lease to expire might be your best option for the sale of that rental property. Not only will you be able to continue to collect your monthly rental revenue, but you’ll have time to find the right real estate agent to sell your home or a savvy investor that has cash in-hand and is ready to buy right now. Waiting for the lease to expire may also allow you to avoid dealing with awkward showings while the renter is still in the property, or an angry Tenant who decides to take steps to not allow the sale of the home.

Pay the Tenant to Vacate

Even if this is required by county, city, or Abington law, offering cash to your renter(s) to break their lease and/or move is a fast and straightforward option for getting a Tenant out of the home. Not only that, but paying cash to vacate your rental property can be beneficial to both you and your Tenant. In these situations, a landlord and their Tenant(s) come to a monetary agreement that allows for the lease to be broken with no legal repercussions. This is a win-win for both parties; you get to put the rental for sale on the date of your choice and your renters have a cushion for moving on to their next home.

Sell the Property to Your Tenant

Maybe you’ve grown tired of owning a house that is aging and needs expensive maintenance and repairs you don’t have the time, energy, or funds to complete. Or perhaps you’ve decided to move on to your next investment but you’d like to see the rental property stay in the hands of someone you trust. That’s when selling the property directly to the current occupants of the house might be a great option! Whether it’s done as a traditional home sale or as a lease-to-own situation, you’ll no longer have to deal with the hassle of that unwanted rental property while still profiting from any appreciation on the property during the time you owned and managed it.

Sell the Property with an Active Lease

If you’ve decided to sell your rental house but you still have an active lease associated with the property, can you still sell? Yes, you can! 

For some investors interested in a rental property to add to their portfolio, your occupied house with an active lease is preferable to one that is vacant and requires the work of finding renters. If your Tenants have a good history that includes a security deposit with their lease, are consistently on time with their rent, and maintain the house and land around it, this is a great selling point for the house’s next investor!

When to Sell a Rental Property in Abington

Is there a specific time to sell your rental property? When you feel it’s time to sell! Whether you’re a landlord who is tired of the time it takes to manage their own properties, or you’re ready to cash in on the appreciation of a rental house so that you can move on to a new investment, the best time to sell a rental property is up to you. Sometimes properties take a negative slide, with maintenance costing more than is covered by the rent. Regardless of the reason you are selling, you’ll want to consider the following while trying to decide if now is the right time to sell:

Equity Level is High on the Rental Property

Housing Demand is Strong 

Market Dynamics are Changing

Rising Interest Rates

If you are ready to sell your rental property and want to invest in your next property, be sure to keep an eye on those mortgage interest rate changes! Rising interest rates can make buying rental property more expensive for investors, as well as causing less demand in the housing market which could drive your selling price down. 2021’s extremely low interest rates have passed, with a 30-year fixed mortgage now as high as 7.8% for homeowners. 

Property Needs Repairs – High Maintenance Costs 

The years have passed and you’ve had more than one tenant using (and sometimes abusing) that rental property you bought brand new. Investors with houses, condos, and other types of property that have maintenance and repair bills adding up for those necessary upgrades may find it makes more financial sense to sell. A replacement water heater, a new roof, or an overhaul of the HVAC system can add up quickly, pinching your bottom line. Look over the numbers and see if selling at a slightly lower price may keep you from losing even more money to that rental property money pit.

Steps to Take Before Selling Your Rental Property 

Identify Target Buyer

Are you looking to sell to another investor? Would you prefer to pass your rental property on to your Tenant or a family looking for their first home? When you decide to sell, you’ll want to know who your target market should be. Once you identify your target buyer, you’ll know how to price the property for sale.

Decide on Your Pricing Strategy

When you are ready to sell your rental house, condo, or property, you’ll need to focus on your overall objective. Do you have time to wait and are looking to get the biggest profit possible? Would you prefer to sell quickly and with little to no hassle? Will you be able to sell the home vacated or will there be an active lease on the property? All of these things can affect your overall sale price!

Buyers Inspection and Do Repairs

If you are looking to make as much profit as possible with the sale of your rental property, you’ll want to make sure your appraisal and buyer’s inspection doesn’t turn up anything unexpected. Before you list the property, make sure everything is up to code and the property is “market ready”. Consult with an experienced broker and order a pre-buyer inspection. This could save you hours of time on negotiation and repairs you had no idea you needed.

Run a Lien Search

Do you still have a mortgage or some sort of financial loan on the property? If so, you most likely also have a lien from the lender against the title. This is only removed when the house sells and the mortgage is paid off at close. However, there might be liens you aren’t aware of. To make sure there are no encumbrances you need to deal with before selling, ask an escrow officer to order a title search. If something comes up, take care of it before putting the house up for sale.

Inform Tenant

Be diplomatic! Most states require landlords to let their existing Tenant(s) know the property will be going up for sale. To keep things civilized, let your renters know with as much notice as possible that you will be putting the property up for sale. 

Make sure to keep up-to-date on requirements of state and local laws to avoid the hassle of legal clashes due to misunderstandings or a lack of knowledge of the law. Some renters may have previously dealt with their rentals going up for sale, but to others this might be a totally new (and scary) process. Reassure them that the sale will not affect their lease, and that the security deposit will transfer to the new owner.

Analyze Capital Gains

When you sell your rental property, you’ll need to pay tax on depreciation recapture and any remaining capital gains. Due to this, many investors hold on to properties longer than they should due to a fear of losing too much profit to the Capital Gains tax. But there are straightforward ways to avoid capital gains. 

While holding on to an investment, owners will often use the depreciation expense to reduce taxable net income. But, when the property is sold, the total expense that was claimed is taxed as regular income up to a rate of 25%. But there is a way around this! The 1031 tax-deferred exchange allows investors to defer paying these taxes on their investment properties by purchasing a replacement property within 180 days of selling.
