This one with my pro forma calculations has a $200/ month cash flow so I can see why it's may have a tougher time moving. 

They are much tougher, better built machine.

welcome to one of the tougher markets in the US.

It is easier to soften up later than it is to get tougher.

Looking back I should have had a tougher negotiation on the original purchase.

I am asking because if I can sell them valued as a commercial property then this deal makes sense, if not, turning a profit will be tougher as I am at the whims of residential comps which is always tough?

@Andrew Holmes  The city of Chicago uses code enforcement to ensure absentee landlords and non performing property managers are not dragging down blocks and neighborhoods especially in tougher areas where there are already plenty of external factors working against a community.  

Tougher to do without other solds to use as comps...also, have you checked the zoning?

As I mentioned before, I bought my property as a 2/1 and it is now a 5/2 with comparable finished sq ft.I remember reading that refinancing can be tougher within the first year of buying a property.
