Something that makes it clear that both parties understand they've been under the same lease the entire time.

I mentioned that as an option because the OP sounds like he has very little understanding of RE investing. 

Get a solid understanding of the business via going to local REIA's, signing up for free webinars and attending events4.

So afraid it's on the buyer from my understanding

I understand townhomes won't appreciate as much as a single family home but our hope is to pay off principal along the way, start getting more cashflow and eventually pay off both properties. 

Understand how it could currently be developed.

I understand appreciation can be lucrative as well.  

Thanks  I was thinking of creating 3 listings  one for each and one for the two combined  I think I understand you’re saying you just keep it at the two?

After you have a general understanding of the REI in the Columbus market and you know what interest you and or maybe some long term goals.

Okay I understand better what you are trying to accomplish @Tommy Adeoye!
