but on that basis 6 years of no rent/mortgage payments then? and rental income for another four give or take a few months?
The OP is bemoaning 'losing' money because of the 'paper' money according to valuations at an in between time - Poppy is completely right, they haven't 'lost' anything.
My comment was a reply to the claim that OP had made 20k on the value of the property itself: True in absolute terms, but the gain is actually ~nil factoring in inflation.
Obviously, taking renting income into account OP is surely well in the black, and the fact that the house was once value at 130k is irrelevant.0 -

Houses do rent - it's either the agent is rubbish, the house is rubbish or the rent is too high.
Worrying about this will get you nowhere. take some decisive action - decide which of the above it is and take steps to get it resolved.
