A good exercise is to define your core values and then align your actions in life with those values.

Be advised that if this is a financed property then the bank could exercise a due on sale clause (calling the note)...While this usually is rare, consult with local experts whether the risk is worth it

, you should first do this exercise: ask yourself/spouse if you were to add a monthly payment to your bills right now - forget about what it's for - how much payment would make you uncomfortable? 

Seattle is one of the 21 cities where renters represents at least half the total population living in households.They could vote to live for free for the rest of their lives if they wanted to.Seattle landlords--your customers are exercising their political power (or it's being exercised for them by those in power for their own purposes).The people in Seattle's government have made it into an "Illegal" sanctuary city set on harboring have-nots from other countries.When the Have-nots outnumber the Haves things like this happen.Then when things like this happen and the area's turn into slums due to inadequate cash flow, they will further plague landlords calling them slumlords and cracking down on them.This just seems like part of a much bigger political issue (and possibly a way to make their sanctuary city more attractive to who they want to draw there to live).

Or if there's enough for cash flow, just as gracefully staying in until the option is exercised or finding another tenant-buyer if it's not.

I would exercise that 5% Vacancy amount and brace for impact while letting the tenant know that his obligations are within accordance with his lease.

I'm gonna exercise & eat healthier/less. 

As a sales professional, I'm always the vendor in transactions that involve 6 to 7 figures, so it was an enlightening exercise.

I still feel great at my age that I can exercise and my cardio is great.

What a futile exercise.
