@Kyle Atans  or PHX when building stopped dead cold and they deported half the construction workers who happened to be 80% of the tenant base.. same with central CA building stopped  no deportation though :)I just bought in Vegas for semi retirement and tax purposes I kind of like were it sits now.. but no question your timing of that market was impeccable.. !!! 

:@Bill GulleyThank you, kind sir.

Please kindly help to handle this the best way. 

If your product is nice, I believe you'll attract the right kind of renter (factory worker, lineman, etc). 

It's always good to invest when there is worry and uncertainty.said it well, Dale, no matter what kind of market it is, it is full of uncertainty, but that does not mean opportunities decrease.

That kind of errand is not the sort of thing they are paid to do and our liaison wasn't able to devote enough time to the problem on a daily basis to make it happen which I completely understood but it was still frustrating. 

I am kind of flexible on price point, something under a million for sure.

@Kyle Knudsen  I agree with Denver, with a 1031 you must move all the proceeds to a new "like kind" property. 

As per chatGPT, closing costs in Ohio are usually 2% - 5% of the price, so maximum: $6950.I'm open to working with lenders of any kind to make this happen. 

A common thread is the floating Purchase Option Price, perpetually remaining just outside of reach.
