In this instance, I would enjoy the dispute and clearly will not be backing down.  

Real Estate should not be depreciated.Depreciation is one of the most beloved tools in real estate investing, but let’s take a moment to challenge the norm: Should real estate even qualify for depreciation?

Are there other options i should be asking for?

I am an Indianapolis realtor, as well as an investor myself, and I specialize in helping investors in the area!

I specify that it has to be at least 1000 square feet (SF) (bigger the better), it doesn't have to be a 3+BR, but if it's not and at least 1000 SF I can convert it to be a 3BR.

❓Any insight you could give would be great!

Quote from @Bruce Woodruff: Only if you paln on helping other people buy and sell properties.

However, you would have to rework your current contract to be subject to SS approval  (which the buyer may or may not be into),or sell to another party, and if you are getting financing for the new house, that will likely fall apart as well. 

If there aren't issues with this and it wouldn't be too much extra work, I'm really just looking for an additional tool to incentivize our borrowers/purchasers to keep paying timely each month. 

The dishwasher should be to the right of the sink as a large majority of people are right handed.There is a picture of a second fridge in the kitchen, but no mention of it in the listing.You'd have been better off putting the stove where the second fridge is and giving the renter more countertop space.
