@Marc Brenner Fantastic Realtor and a genuinely nice guy! 

@Jon Hill, Please understand that my question is not meant to be sarcastic, but is genuine. 

I have a tenant in TN that has been gradually building a pretty extensive garden in the backyard (property has a huge backyard) and transformed the garage into the green house, where they grow lots of starter plants.

@Mike Jacovelli while I'm sure that can be discouraging, it might also be a good thing...as long as what you are receiving in genuine concern...People tend to discourage you when they feel like it is protecting you, so maybe spin it around this way: 1) When they voice concerns about the information you're giving them, you can either dismiss it and change the subject (if they are being negative). 2) Do they have any specific concerns that you should actually consider as relevant?

I see it as no other options and if I were to genuinely present all options that the seller can try maybe that’s not for them and that’s where I would come in again I may be wrong but that’s at least that’s how I feel about it now.

lastly you have no growth on any of the charts, as place holders use 2% for rental growth, expense growth, and appreciation. this growth is what could transform this deal. however even with the adjustments i'm pointing out, it would seem you would need a better price off the bat to make this work. i wish you luck

Something that takes years to get a genuine good feeling for in large expensive markets like Seattle. 

Provide a genuine pre-approval. 

Transforming houses into a homes that's my game plan. 

Can they afford the initial build-out to transform your space to a restaurant that will pass health inspections and have enough funds left for the start up, food cost,  and marketing?
