Dump property before it is too late

If you are not living in the house and it is an investment property, don't hope unless you have long term tenant locked in five years guarantee won't break type

Otherwise when tenancy reset you will be screwed, so better sell while there are bids

Or else when sold at cut rate price you will be massively squeezed
