Confused about dryer sheets
I have 3 houses (2 are rentals) all with mortgages and I am planning on retiring in Late 2013 from the Military. I probably could be FIRE but I’ll address that in another post. One of my self-imposed requirements to retire was to have 6 months of rent for each house in accounts to cover any months when the house was not rented out and to cover any repairs. Starting next month I’ll have the required amount for one of my houses and in late summer I will have the other amount. I currently have $ 800 a month ($ 400 for each house) going into the accounts. As it stands now, one of my rentals will be fully paid for in OCT 2016. Next month I was thinking about taking the $ 400 and applying it towards principal on the one that is scheduled to be paid off in OCT 2016. Once the other account gets filled I will direct those funds towards the same rental principal. If I do that, in Late 2013 I figure that I would have around 20-25 K left on the house and then I was thinking about taking the remaining amount out of my non-retirement account to pay it off, which then would generate more income for me.
Here are my financials:
PRI House : 5% 30 years (27 left) 378K remain 2500 mortgage/1250 Bi weekly
Rental 1: 5.375% 15 years (4 ½ left) 43K Just under 1K/485 Bi weekly (receive 1170/month after property management fees). I plan on keeping this house as a rental.
Rental 2: 4.625% 15 years (14 left) 120K Just under 1400/month (receive 1833/month after property management fees) I just refinanced this house last year and turned a $ 500/month debt into a $ 400 month income). I plan on selling this one once the market recovers.
105K in Non retirement accounts
50K in stocks
95K in Roth IRA’s
157K in Regular IRA’s/TSP
My question is what do you think about taking the extra $ and applying it to rental 1 and then when I retire taking the rest out of my non –retirement account to pay it off completely.
Thanks
Bob
