In this case it would not be for me to say one way or another whether the morality of the considerations or variables are right or wrong. 

@Ryan Brown and @Sandy Morales I use http://www.lawofficeofmichaelv... and have no complaints.

I have a good job I don't plan to leave and want to boost my income/cash flow and long term retirement savings through additional avenues.

If/when you move out of the house hack, rents will most likely have gone up and it may cash flow, and/or you could short-term one of the units and further boost your cash flow.  

Zinsser no sand should do the trick as a base, but it looks super glossy so going over them quick with a palm sander and 150 grit would really boost the adhesion and make scratching/peeling less likely.

I posed a similar question elsewhere about moral hazard of flipping from afar where there is a bigger risk of being ripped off or just scammed outright. 

Just be aware that more time will generally help boost the appraisal.

@Tiffany Roberts there is no moral issue here, this is simply a legal settlement without lawyers where the parties to the settlement agree not to disparage/ hold harmless.It would be a real issue to take the money and then write a bad review, as some have suggested, you might very well find yourself being sued and you would be very vulnerable.Text of the NDA matters, personally I would agree to not writing a negative review (discount for not writing something?

You can borrow money at a low interest rate to obtain a much more expensive asset which boosts your overall long term return.

@Adey Bilewu That could be a great way to boost the speed at which you start your journey by pooling resources.
