I'll just be honest...you're in a very difficult spot and there isn't going to be a straight forward or easy way to recover your funds or get the work completed. 

I’m talking about straight up buying a quality NNN, getting your yearly 2% rent increases, no major drama wrt to tenant or the location’s intrinsic value changing due to outliers.  

@Daniel Cullen - we just recorded a Straight Up Chicago Investor Podcast with an investor who did his first househack in Blue Island.

Are you saying you will raise the rent $200 each month for 3 months straight? 

That being said, if the program existed back then, I definitely would have used it.The featured agent program is a "shortcut" to get in front of high-intent leads straight from the BiggerPockets community.

Y@Scott Bowen - I've read some of your other posts, and I love how you dove straight into investing based on your own criteria and goals. 

When I asked if they could have hid he said no - the porch is straight and long and noone was there.

You have to actually strike the butt seams straight down with a regular hammer, not mallet, and use some force at that.

But remember this is not straight forward as the basis of the new property is derived from the adjusted basis of the relinquished property plus any amount you paid.

I'm glad we're getting straight to the point.
