You may want to remove yourself from the situation since you are emotional about the situation.

Don't make emotional decisions because you are "in love" with the property 

There’s no room for emotion in investing—if you catch yourself getting eager or excited, take a step back.  

If you represent yourself, you have an amateur that is emotionally tied to the deal.

Hard lesson learned for me that my family isn't to be trusted ever again and that I need to severe my relationship with them completely because they have harmed me & my child emotionally & financially.  

(I just don't see how a pitbull could offer more emotional support than a poodle or spaniel.)I'd encourage you to google HUD guidelines for Emotional Support Animals.

You always invest in areas that support your thesis on the development going forward, not historical.Everything you've mentioned is how you're emotions work.

I am nearby in Lake Oswego and would love to connect, swap resources and be (as my kiddos would say) "an emotional support buddy"!

Im assuming you mean ESA, Emotional Support Animal. 

I'm going to hold onto the property and give it at least another year before I decide to emotionally sell.
