Curious how much your home would rent for in Central Park? Here’s the Cheat Sheet we made for you! Side note: If you purchased your home before March 2022, you probably have a really low interest rate and your home would likely be cash flow positive as a rental! We’re happy to explore that with you if you’re thinking about renting out your home. If you purchased after that date your interest rate is likely higher and you’re not likely to have positive cash flow. Just an interesting rule of thumb we’ve discovered as we help homeowners decide if they should rent out their home or sell it.

Disclaimer: Our Friday real estate updates are meant to be a “roundup” type post where we discuss all listings in Central Park, not just our own. It’s our way of making sure we follow the market closely and we share it with the Scoop readers because we know many of you like to track real estate in the area as well. Many of the listings in these posts are not our company’s listings and we wanted to mention that here to make sure it’s clear. Thanks for reading the Scoop!
