We have ~400k in gains after improvements. 

Your gain / income on the sale would beSales price less cost to purchase the lane, less the cost to build the property, less improvements less costs to sell plus the depreciation taken on the property.Whether the gain is ordinary or capital will depend on whether you are classified as a dealer.

This might improve your NOI and slightly raise your ROE while you try to decide.
