Direct Answer
The answer depends on today's value, expected NOI growth, debt, capital needs, tax planning, management burden, and your next use of capital. The right comparison is not sale price versus hope. It is sale price today versus the realistic hold case after expenses, risk, and time.
Holding can be the right decision, but it should account for insurance, repairs, rent growth limits, vacancy, debt maturity, time, and future buyer appetite.
Owners cannot compare options without a credible current value range. A private valuation review creates the baseline for the decision.
