Thanks Tiffany, I see some listings(CVS or Walgreens) stating that they will not be renewing or exercising their option when the lease expires in 12 months, so does this have to be disclosed, how far in advance are these decisions made?. 

@Jon Klaus ; Good thought exercise here.

Like others here, I use several tools to gain an accurate perspective.A great exercise is to look up the comps on Rentometer, Zillow, and CraigsList, make a list, and then go drive / walk the neighborhood.

I hope somebody got a sample contract I can see.

if you plan is you get out of the property over a shorty number of years then it will be important to pay down your principal to a point that if prices drop substantially you are not upside down when you need to sell.Work the numbers both ways and exercise your plan over a few different scenarios and see which one work best for you to grow you wealth.

But, what matters is the size and zoning.)As an exercise, assuming that the residual land has no value (although it does), what's the profit here, just from pushing paperwork around? 

Copy of a sample Purchase and Sales Agreement - If I'm considering any RE purchase I want to review the paperwork thoroughly during the due-diligence period and possibly have my attorney review. 

I worked for 2 years with NAR and Freddie Mac on the the race/appraisal report that came out last year.Percentage of times appraisals come in low in neighborhoods by race.White - 7.4%Black - 12.5%Hispanic - 15.4%Appraisals come in low in black neighborhoods then at a rate of 69% more often than white neighborhoods and 108% more often in Hispanic neighborhoods than in whites.The sample size of the study was over 12 million appraisals with a time range of 2015 to 2020.
