This exercise will give you ideas of neighborhoods and what price points are fair.5 - Determine your acquisition strategy.

That's definitely a good exercise and one we've been doing more and more lately (and thereby selling and selling more these days). 

I just wanted to advise exercising caution while considering options to get out from under this.

The lender at that point can exercise the Due On Sale and it becomes a problem for the subto buyer, who now has to find new financing or lose the house to foreclosure.

I like doing re-mods (free exercise) so I plan to continue to some extent.

A gently used Ralph Lauren leather sofa is far better than a new one from Ashley Furniture. 

I gently asked the tenant if she smelled weed in the backyard and she claimed that she does not smoke anything so she does not know etc etc.2.

The learning curve for SFH is much more gentle than that for medium size MF. 

@Adam Schneider success with a lease option doesn't always mean that the person exercises their option to buy. as I stated above, we've had a lot of people that have really appreciated that they had an option to buy the house, even though they decided to move. 

Must've taken a day's worth of labor to complete that exercise.
