I also get what you're saying about the awkwardness of showing the tenant the util. bill every month and asking for their portion.Still, I feel uneasy giving free rein to the tenant to use resources without any cost.

In other words, it doesn't always just boil down to numbers for cash flow in the first year or so, depends on your investment strategy.What caught my eye on this thread was the title, should you bail out.Without reading through long details of some deals, any investor that begins to feel uneasy in any deal probably won't be happy with it after they close.

All cash offer, not many strings attached to the money, etc would be nice but we are uneasy about it.Am I missing any potentials options?

Also, I would not allow offer to be contingent upon seller’s 1031 unless this is really a phenomenal deal and even at that it makes me uneasy.

At first, he was uneasy about this - all of his prior leases were for only 1 year, so he didn't understand why we would suggest this. 

Ahhhh just very un easy at the moment.

Thanks @Laura Kayes and @Dennis M. for the replies.One thing I'm uneasy about.

If you feel uneasy or don't know the answer to a question you have, well your question has been asked here hundreds of times, therefore, there is already an answer waiting for you.That doesn't mean you'll ever feel like you know it all when you make your next steps.

You're still risking your labor and time which is how you make a living and put food on the table (as well as your reputation, which is equally important if you're serious).I can see how the money guys might be a little uneasy, but if they're looking for a hands-free investment vehicle it is a fantastic opportunity for them.

When you have your buyer lined up you may have to try one or more of the following:Add them as another buyer, then remove yourself off title once closedSwap your new buyer with yourselfClose under your business name then transfer title to your buyersThese methods can make your agent and or buyers a little uneasy to say the least.
