Stocks are a more nuanced and (to me) fear-inducing thing altogether.The way out of our current real estate escalation (if it is in the cards) is inventory increase, debt getting more expensive, or buyer demand otherwise decreasing. 

Barring a major event like war or pandemic-induced government shut-down, I see some serious growth ahead.

That's at least a violation of NAR rules and maybe your state's laws.Then there's the issue of "fraud in the inducement". 

Nevertheless, in order to compete for the reduced number of tenants in the market, landlords are offering other inducements, such as months of free rent and generous "TI" allowances for tenants to build out offices the way they like.

I agree with it being "best asset class" for the most part, but mortgage crisis induced recession is a still a recent memory. 

As you can see, our economy is still struggling to recover after a record coronavirus surge induced more layoffs at the end of last year.

You had two turnover events, one induced by a national crises, one by a tenant buying a house. 

If these were part of your inducement to the contract, then you may have a reason to terminate the contract and get your money back.

If your broker isn't comatose, I bet they'll put a fast stop to it.The other potential landmine is that if you cause the seller to enter into a contract when you don't have the money and intent to perform, that's a tort called "fraud in the inducement". 

The theory I'd bring to your attorney is that a contract formed for an illegal purpose is void at its inception.The other thing you might try is using "fraud in the inducement".
