I will definitely ask a retailer for a fair market value.To answer some of your questions, We don't plan on moving back to the house unless we truly have to.

A kitchen display they had in the store that was regular retail price of around 5k was down to like $2800.

Unfortunately, from a residential real estate investment perspective, most of the immediate area is zoned commercial/retail and has existing buildings on it or is vacant.  

"Rent ready" is different than retail. 

I am currently looking at a Strip Center that has 6 units (Retail, Restaurant, and a bar) They are asking $875,000, however the property needs some work so I only want to pay around $700,000 for it. 

Property Management has its moments, but I can say I really did enjoy working in a fast paced environment. 

If you're paying retail, you're getting ripped off. 

Go at your own pace. 

@Jeremy Pace, @Loren WhitneyThanks for your feedback and thoughts on this.  

Old windows that are not functional or efficient detract from value, so you are keeping pace with what the market demands more than going above what is expected. :)
