I’m considering consulting a lawyer to clarify these issues.Two weeks ago, I reached out to the tenant via email to start a conversation and propose a win-win renewal, but I haven’t heard back yet.

If I were a betting man the company is folding up and this dutch character is out there doing the guru circuit as only source of $ and idiots will pay for training from someone like this.  

So you could see about going to auctions and winning a "cheaper" bid on a property there, if you decide that's an option.

I'm not saying this will never happen to me, but I'd probably be vastly more likely to win the lottery before that happened haha.I can attest to #8 as well.

You might have to dig into off-market deals, though, since inventory is tight.Multi-Family: Always a safe bet if you can snag a good deal.

So why would they go skinny to win your business? 

We look forward to working with you and pushing these properties over the finish line - that's how we all win!

This should be win-win and your 10 yr older self will appreciate it down the line. 

An experienced broker with lots of choices at the palm of their hand is probably the best bet.

I guess a flat seasonal fee like any insurance policy, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.
