Do you really think that owner is going to be unwilling to work with me to find a solution for my tenant?  

Again, it's your choice to hear them and do what you want with the info.You are welcome to build a bomb shelter in your back yard but I would consult your local contractor to ensure it is done properly.You seem like an experienced individual in MF and may be this is why you are unwilling to listen to different points of view.

@Russell BrazilI believe that the statement if you are unwilling to take on debt then you shouldn't be investing in real estate and stay in the market is a laughable statement.

In my case, that would be 4100/mo x 12 x 7 or $344,400 would be lost.Personally, I am unwilling to work for nothing during these 7-8 years.The axiom is "Cash Is King" and the King is greedy and unwilling to share or spend assets. 

If the Seller is unwilling to adjust the purchase price to the appraisal, then you would like to cancel the transaction and have your earnest money returned to you.You shouldn't have to pay for the Seller's pricing mistake.

Sooner or later, with a small portfolio, you're going to get stuck and you can easily get into a catastrophic financial position if you are unwilling or unable to pick up tools in the name of a breezy idea about how incredibly valuable your time is and how vaunted and exceptional your "real estate skills" are next to other people's time and skills.5.

If you are unable/unwilling to learn the laws, then I recommend you hire a professional to help you navigate the process of managing your rentals before it comes back to bite you.

If you're unwilling to fix these issues, take the 70k and run.
