@Josh DarleyPictures of the bottom stains as stated amd cut a sample to keep in a ziplock in event it’s needed for court.

What occurs during a default?

The only county in the metro area even with discussions to allow it is Montgomery County MD.....and any zoning change in the event discussions become serious would be over a decade out.

@Eli Epstein, it depends on location, construction, exposure to weather events, etc. 

Beyond the Monthly Management, Placement & Maintenance fees, all other fees in our contract are IF EVENT -> THEN fees.

In my state the reason deposits are held in escrow accounts is so a neutral third party has the money in the event of a conflict like you are describing.Your first mistake was to get into a hurry: I could be completely wrong but it sounds like you made a hasty decision based on emotion and not on what may have been best for your situation.

I’m looking to start working on my taxes for the year and to make the most of an eventful year. 

Addresses, too, that just occurred to me.

Are you wondering how much to set aside for taxes in the event of a sale? 

@Andrew P.  1) as  2022 is almost  here -  consider  completing and filing the 2021 tax returns asap  and  consider having the  schedule E  for the  rental income  show as much of a   positive  net  income as possible  ...this   might  increase your tax  exposure for the year but if the  result  is  that you will be able to line up a  HELOC on your primary  property , it could be worth it 2) a  traditional  cash out  refinance  will  have the same  issue   of using the tax returns  for the  qualifying ratios  - the LTV  ( loan to  value ) for a OO triplex  isnt  very high 3) recent FED  announcement  - 3  seperate  .25%  increases   expected for  fed rate  in  2022  - this means  HELOC / prime rate will increase  by the same  amount when  these increases occur
