I have spoken to someone in your office, but I still don't really understand your company's role.

Mindset and job play a role too. 

Account Closed that comparing them seems like an exercise in futility.

Could you act in a GP role and personally guarantee the loan for a higher equity stake?

I don't want to tie up a property by a renter that won't be exercising the option and usually an option sets a price a seller is obliged to sell for, so if there is appreciation, the renter benefits.You need to do more research as the range of comps is too broad.

This firm has taken an interest in me and I have the opportunity to get my Master's in Tax paid for and a full time offer in a role supporting their Fed Tax practice.However, recently I interviewed with a growing real estate company for a position as a property accountant where I'll get exposure to many different areas. 

We have $25k for emergencies, and another $65k either in brokerage accounts or high interest savings/checking accounts, though we're pretty far behind in retirement savings due to some debt I had from the only other time I've been a landlord (a long story about getting screwed by a RE attorney/property manager from a home from my previous marriage), which has been paid off since 2013.I've known about my unemployment since Thanksgiving and am trying to move up the corporate ladder, but am finding it difficult to progress to in-person interviews for job titles that are above anything I've had yet, but I am getting initial interviews for VP/EVP/SVP roles with recruiters.
