Hey @Taylor Smith,There are a lot of factors that play into the decision, so I would always start discussing what your current portfolio looks like, your future goals, what states you operate from generally along with a multitude of other questions.

I could keep it as an appreciation play, but I went into real estate for cash flow, and this barely has any.

You are not playing the victim (very important in life) and you are not blaming anyone but yourself (very important in this business).   

How did this play out?  

Your business plan should have determined the answer to your question before you started to invest.I invest for income and do not let equity sit dead in my investments.  

@Patrick GarrettAs @Stephanie Potter mentioned so are soooo many variables that come into play and my recommendation would be to get on the phone and start calling every bank/credit union in town.

I'm not sure how you are analyzing the repair cost and how this plays into your spreadsheet. 

With the lease option you can be in their in less than 30 days.The buyer leased my movie theater - play house for three years, hilt up equity through crediting part of the lease payment as future down payment, credited the lease deposit of $20k, and he was able to get a bank loan to purchase.

My question to those who are playing in this market is....

Is it just a yield play?
