I had let my guard down and given a tenant the benefit of the doubt (a tenant who is (now was) a CEO and raised millions of dollars for a newsworthy venture).

Here are things that would not transfer with a sale:-2.5% interest- prop 13 property tax benefit is saving ~$40/monththese are awesome advantages that are tough to match   In addition you have achieve outstanding return from the appreciation since purchase.On the other hand, you have $300k of equity which places the LTV at ~65%.  

If this does not happen you will still have two properties getting paid off and providing tax benefits and cash flow and hopefully appreciation.
