You would need to have a rock solid argument prepared for how community benefit (affordable housing?)

They all mention that my business plan seems rock solid and they buy into my numbers. 

On the books are Margaritaville development and Hard Rock development with 1000s of acres of homes to be built, that is a bit north and west of Sherman. 

Areas like Memphis, Little Rock, Oklahoma, Texas and even Alabama.

One of our properties is on the far south side over my UW-Rock, which is my favorite rental spot because it's full of single family and duplex homes, lots of cul-du-sacs that keep traffic noise down, and near the interstate.

Is there a band-aid fix that you can do in the meantime that might stop the mold issues even if it doesn't address the foundation issues right away.If you are going to consider selling it at a loss the question doesn't become how much money did you lose on this deal but rather how much money can you make from the money you would be able to get out of the deal.

Outside of real estate and data science, I love board games, cooking, classic rock music and travelling (might travel around Mexico/Cancun if possible). 

And have a plan B and plan C. 

After reviewing both the A-B and the B-C contracts, I wire the $125,000 to the title company handling the A-B closing with the stipulation that it does not fund or close until the B-C transaction fundsa and closes, then my funds close your A-B transaction.

You will likely see a fairly standard band of costs for comparable services.
