@Karolina Powell Just some high level thoughtsDeal #1:This is probably something I would only be interested in if there's equity to be had right off the bat or soonish.

I feel as though my home is priced too high, however, my property manager insists the price is competitive.  

High rental demand (Section 8 too).

We own 3 other rental properties that have a 6.5%-7.5% APR, and no credit card debt or any other high interest debt to pay off.

These qualities are far more valuable than the numbers in your bank account.7.Set clear goals.

Here’s why lease options are a game-changer:🔹 Low Risk, High Leverage – Instead of buying a property outright, you lease it with the option to purchase later.

My interest rate and purchase price wouldn’t allow for positive cash flow unless I charged an unreasonable rent—or put about $500K toward the principal, which isn't ideal.I’m a high earner, so I’m weighing my options:Take the loss ($60K-$100K), buy another house, and chalk this up to a hard lesson learned.Refinance, put more money into it, and rent it out long-term—even if it’s not immediately profitable.Invest my money elsewhere and try to make peace with staying here for several years.Would love to hear thoughts from anyone with experience in real estate, financial strategy, or noise mitigation.

The market in Racine is much different than Kenosha and we have been having a hard time getting quality tenant applicants.
