Thanks for the heads up Jasmine.  

hey everyone, now I'm no experienced real estate investor so I can't seem to wrap my head around this.

(you can notice the reaction in a persons face when you use their name, it's quite interesting to pay attention to.)Needless to say I left the property me and the agent along with her husband (also an agent) stood on the corner of the street, while I contemplated in my head what I wanted to do.

I basically sold my interest in the property.I walked away with 9K and a big head. 

I tried to hold out as long as I could but when my oldest was heading into kindergarten and staying in the city stopped making sense in every way.

I actually started with my first studio purchase in Manhattan in 2009 and have been able to flip up quite substantially. 

Is this owner's head in the clouds, or am I doing something wrong?

My initial thought was that I would head out of state to start and I still may do that, but it would be my first investment.  

Offer to him three other options to help him wrap his head around that he will be transitioning out of the place, then let him choose one.
