(which blows my mind how many people think that if they take equity from a property they do not view that as borrowing)...  

My personal residence has a single basin sink and we use a drying rack similar to the one pictured below and never really even considered it a problem

Break down your rehab into individual jobs, for example get a electrician for electrical work, a plumber to repipe the house, a dry wall guy to close out the walls, etc.

While it's not completely unusual for deals to die at the table, if enough happen in a row you generally need to look in the mirror - what is your role in blowing up the deal?

I was able to get free hand and get the spray on him....and apply some low end not so nice blows my dad taught me to use when battling a stronger opponent ....then I called the cops.  

Because the entity you could go after, who has little capital to go after, sure you could put them out of business, and wouldn't ya know it 24hrs later that property is now under a new same/similar enhanced NNN lease arrangement to a new separate operational party who took over for the now bankrupt entity.And what attorney is going to burn through thousands of hours, trying to go after "dry wells"? 

Are these markets dried up until the rent to price formula evens out a bit more down the line (if they ever do)?

Many buyers look at houses at the very top of their budget, and therefore the solar lease can blow their approval even if they would have gladly assumed the terms into their name.Additionally, paid off solar can really only add value to a house in markets where it is the norm to have paid-off solar AND houses that sell for more because of it. 

The main thing also to consider is how dry a basement is. 

If you can get over the mental thought that you "gave away" 60% and look at the math, what the math does, I think it will blow your mind.
