Neither do you so, any "negotiation" would be an exercise in futility at this point.

Going through the exercise of exploring your needs would really be beneficial here and that's what you've done exactly.

@Ryan Cleary, sounds like some good exercise!

During these exercises you will learn alot about yourself and the risk level and raw effort you are willing to take in order to achieve success. 

He has been month-to-month since July of this year and never exercised his option to renew.We're in the process of selling the station and the new buyers are requesting us to have the tenant vacate.

Still a lot of New York investors feeling out and exercising the Connecticut market.

Also, the seller may refuse to sign the closing docs and actually sell the property to you when you exercise your Option.

They could prob be getting closer to 1750/2000/month for the 2 bedroom units but use $6k/month for this exercise.  

I will look into FHA loan Try to exercise those other options first.

If so, you could always give them an option to buy which they can exercise when you find a replacement rental.
