Value in holding onto my existing home with tracker, while buying a new house

[Brendan Burgess]

I know Brendan prefers to frame the analysis in terms of profitability and then overlays a cash flow projection to assess the affordability of holding a particular investment. I'm not suggesting for a second that there is anything "wrong" with this approach but profitability always strikes me as a concept that only makes sense in hindsight - it doesn't project forward.

Hi Sarenco

I think that our underlying approach is very similar, but just expressed differently. Rather than take this thread off topic, I have copied the data to
How to evaluate whether to keep an investment property

Would you like to do a comprehensive answer using your approach and I will then do mine.

I assume you have all the data you need. If not, assume the data for the purposes of the exercise.
