Sounds like this is at a discount.

I would certainly try to rent it, even at a discounted rate, until the next school cycle. 

They are still at a discount to the 10 year treasury bond (i.e. market trends indicate they will continue to escalate).

Looking for guidance on options. new builds aren't hard to finance and I would argue they are preferred to existing fix and flip loans, especially if you have experience. banks look at your experience, your builder's experience, loan structure, permits, etc you need to get an experienced builder familiar with advanced underwriting and negotiations with local, regional, and national lenders. in columbus we do ground up construction for clients at a 20% discount so they can BRRRR out of the new build with equity and we have pages and pages of data on what we build and why and it's all supported by market statistics. 

I was willing to let this go and move on before Gregg chimed in, but now I felt required to set the record straight. 

At times you can find discounts in marketing to this niche. 

But if the lease terms are murky, if renewal conditions aren’t guarenteed, or if the airport authority could dramatically shift the deal down the line, then you should be asking for a discount..or at least some protective clauses in the contract.I’m curious... if you were to step into this kind of leasehold now, how do you think you’d explain the upside to your future buyers or partners when you eventually decide to exit?

Listing immediately at a bit of a discount to fill it quick on ST leases to reup in spring.

There was one here local to me that was on the market for over 2 years before it sold at a significant discount.

I prefer to buy my materials because of my discount and because I’m pretty savvy with finding solid deals on things.
