You have a property and yea its in a good position but you dont have the time to ensure that it does not fall apart, so rather sell it and invest that money more wisely on something that you are passionate about. Or that is the way I see it. If you are not interested in spending the time on it, sell it.

Once you sell the website, what are you going to do with the money other than blow it. What value will the BMW have after 4-5 years? Keep the site and build it to create residual income. In 4-5 years your business and the value of the website itself will far outweigh the quick cash you could get from it today. You already have a head start on building an international business. Tap into our proven home based system and let that site pump 40-100k a month into your wife's bank account. I agree with Michael (Income expert) above.

This method will grow your monthly income. There is absolutely no reason you cannot earn $40,000 monthly. Make the decision & then take action. We have been focusing on passive & residual income for years. In my humble opinion, it is the best money earned! DREAM BIG!!!

I thought about leasing it, but the interested buyer doesn't want to lease (which is understandable). I kind of go back and forth.......but it makes sense to sell. It's just stupid to keep a domain with not very good content up when somebody else can build a nice platform on it. I myself tried to buy a pretty good domain recently, but the owner prefers to play games and keeps it parked. Maybe this is a little strange opinion of myself, but top-level domains should be loaded with quality content and not just sit around for years and be a pain for 1000s of people. So. I guess I will sell it and will be excited to see someone build a great business on "my" domain ;-) Great idea Khalid.

Have you thought about leasing the domain to the company for a monthly fee? You would remain in control of your domain but they got use of it. Alternatively you could sell the domain but have a contract whereby you earn a monthly revenue from the domain for the next 5 years maybe? Just ideas to think about. Khalid.

I made the calculation many times and there is no right answer. Still I tend to sell. Also the buyer increased the offer for a substantial amount. Last but not least I think a top level domain with mediocre content is something that nobody wants. Especially in the domain's niche people expect quality content and I believe that I have the responsibility to give this domain in the hands of a professional organization/company.

How long would it take right now to make 40k with that site? How much development would it take to increse the income? Is it currently parked or slightly developed? Maybe a partner or an affiliate program could be all you need to boost the income. Try to sell it and keep a percentage. How long would it take right now to make 40k with that site?

What's the monthly income coming from the domain right now? 2. What % return would you need to get on investing $40k to match that amount? * * Remembering to factor in any tax implications on the sale... If the answer to #2 is in the low to middling single digits, I'd almost definitely sell.
