I've already urged the listing Broker and agents to educate Seller as to the benefits of pmm... higher sales price, ultimately more money from interest payments, relief from liability and dealing with awkward leases, putting an end to nearly 2 years of marketing, etc.

I'm sure it's profitable, but idk if I wanna deal with the fallout of the clientele who would be attracted to the area.It would be owner-occupied, but I wouldn't be super happy about having that be a requirement to operate since that would force me into an awkward position if I wanted to use owner-occupied financing in a future purchase.

We should have been more diligent about implementing late fees, but honestly it just felt a bit awkward since we live in the building as well and see this tenant around the property.

I am thinking though (I don't know if its a New York thing) but if I call somebody and I am like "Hi I am Isaac, I want to ask you a little bit about the area, hows the community, etc etc" Isn't it a little awkward, the person is going to be like "F You, who the hell are you calling me asking about the area??!?"

The thing that scares me is that I would be living in the same building as the tenants which I'm sure could get awkward after a while. 

Not having a shower on the same floor as a bedroom is awkward.

A lowball offer might make dinner on the holidays awkward.

So the garage is a full step down from that after you open the door and the door is hanging awkwardly when opened in the room.

The bathroom is very small and awkward it would be a for sure turn-off to me if I was renting the place and I think many others would feel the same.

@Benjamin Barredo As far as the awkward phone call, don't worry about it.
