<prompt> Human: Im 24 and my father recently passed away, and left his house to me Im an only child and he and my mother were divorced. He purchased the house about a year ago, and the mortgage payments are 1600month. Its probably worth between 600K - 900K. I live about 5 hours from the house and pay 1500month in my own rent. I make about 70Kyear. Im also inheriting a significant amount of liquid assets, and payouts from his life insurance, which should cover the mortgage costs for several years.The house is located in a gorgeous location, but I wouldnt consider living here for a long time its a bit of an old persons community. I would love to keep it as a vacation home for at least a year while I make up my mind. I dont have much attachment to it since I did not grow up here, but it is near many of my relatives and grandparents, and I could picture myself raising a family here in 10 years or so.Is there any reason to sell it soon? Or would it make sense to keep it for a year, use the insurance money to pay the mortgage, and sell it at a later date or perhaps eventually just move in?Appreciate any advice, Im pretty lost.  <response>: Get rid of it. Youre not renting it out so its not bringing in any income. You dont live anywhere near it, so the only time itll get used is if you take a vacation. Youre not going to live in it for a long time, while in the meantime youre paying taxes, insurance, and whatever other upkeep is needed. Think about what the cost of staying with relatives while in town will cost you, or staying in a hotel during your stay, or even renting a condohome while youre on vacation in that area. Unless youre visiting very frequently selling is going to being in your best interest. Worry about 10-years-later you in 10 years. The life insurance money and whatever else you inherited can do more elsewhere.
