    The way I would look at it is you know have money tied up in a property that is barely breaking even rental wise. You have decent growth but how much interest and other expenses have accumulated over the 8 years.

    Perhaps now is the time to cash in and invest that equity.

    Why do you say it barely breaks even rental wise?

    Don't forget I voluntarily use all the rental income to pay off the mortgage. It'll be mortgage free in 14 years, thanks to the tenants :)

    On an interest-only basis it would cost £2200 per year, but rental income is £8k.

    Seems you have all the answers......leave you to it.
