Congrats on taking the steps to make it happen. 

Most companies I’ve found require all tenants to be on a single lease, which doesn’t fit my plan.If anyone has recommendations for a PM company that allows individual room leases, I’d really appreciate it!

Accept it "as is" and fulfill the lease.By responding quickly, professionally, and confidently, they realize I am not an easy target and choose to move on.

Renting could allow you to focus on paying down debt and saving for a larger down payment, while buying now could help you start building equity or even generate passive income through house hacking.

@William Causey depends on the transaction and the parties involved.Agree with @Dennis McNeely on some of the transaction costs.A different issue though is with an Assignment, the buyer gets to see what you paid for the property.

Also does your locality allow you to work on investment properties?

Here is my Cliff Notes on this elaborate example:If you have unused losses from the past, they might significantly soften the tax blow from a profitable sale.I don't see how this is called "strategic play" or "premium lemonade."

Then change the locks and move on.

Pre-construction homes, which could build $50-60K in equity within a year or two.I can afford a 20% down payment, but I’m torn between focusing on equity (pre-con) or cash flow (resale).

With that bank taking on the loans of all of our rental properties we decided that we were comfortable switching to that bank.
