<prompt> Human: Hello reddit,This is going to sound somewhat selfish, but I really would like to better assess my financial situation.I am 31 single male who has bought a condo 2 years ago located pretty close to a busy intersection and across from an abandoned mall. There has been a proposal of a low-income affordable rental apartment coming in to the abandoned mall, which makes me worried about my property value. I understand the importance of affordable housing for the community, but I also have to think about my assets. Ive done some research and many studies and articles suggest that there are no impact on the property value, but in reality, I feel like its going to make my property less attractive if I were to sell it or rent it in the future. I feel like if there were 2 identical houses but one next to an affordable housing and other in a normal neighborhood, people would prefer the latter, but I maybe wrong.I have paid off about 80 of my mortgage, and my initial plan was to rent the current place out and move on to a better neighborhood and bigger house. Now Im contemplating if I should sell my condo asap and move before the value takes the hit. The city Im in has been growing, so it has been staying on a sellers market for awhile now.Any personal anecdotes or advice are appreciated! Thank you!  <response>: one next to an affordable housing and other in a normal neighborhoodYour condo isnt in a normal neighborhood. Its across from an abandoned mall and on a busy corner. Chances are when the affordable apartment building is brand new it will improve the look of your neighborhood and the income of the occupants wont be an issue. That might the the best time to sell although it also might become a desirable time to rent it out since the new apartments could boast the economy in your area with businesses opening near by.
