I’ve heard from many (non-experts) that I’d need to stay for at least 5-7 years to avoid taking a significant financial hit, but that feels like a waking nightmare given how much this issue affects me.Financially, renting it out isn’t an easy solution either.

There is no point in doing a 1031 exchange if you expect a loss from the transaction.A 1031 is meant to defer your gain.There are numbers which you can analyze and stress which is not easy to analyze.It looks like you are stressed with this investment and I would sell.I personally, however, would look to make the improvement for $10,000 to get one of the other units up and running.

Assuming the leases clearly state a security deposit amount, the seller knows that the tenant will be wanting a refund when the lease ends (after closing) so should be an easy reminder that you need those funds credited to you at closing from them to refund to the tenant when needed.If the seller spent the tenants deposit, at least the credit to you at closing comes out of the sales proceeds (seller just nets that much less at closing) and assuming they have sufficient equity should not be a big deal.
