You must realize land lording is a business.

Basically they realized they wanted to live closer to where they work (a job they had taken from out of state before signing the lease).

I personally realize my shortcomings, and my strengths, and realize that a sales focused job would not be the best way for me to utilize my strengths.

I state benefits such as this is a sale and we can sell quickly, and if I don't make the payments you get the house back, and I realize they need to trust me.What is the best way to respond to this situation?

Thanks Nathaniel, new to this board and didn't realize "Silver Spring, Maryland" is right there under my name. 

I just typed out a long email of why, then I clicked on the @Michael Blank article above and realized he said everything, but much more coherently than I can.

A common dilemma for people in Austin who want to realize that equity and still live in a great neighborhood is, what else could you buy for less and be as happy as you are now?  

But now after reading a lot of the post on BP, I have realized it may be better just to pull 20% for my next property out of the money Ive made off of this deployment and buy another house.What would you do?

Like some of you have said, there is no way to protect yoruself frome very posible situation or hazard but the feedback I am getting makes me realize I need to continue to anaylize and improve on my lease yearly-which I will make a part of my process moving forward.  

Lots of analysis/caveats/personal sacrifice goes into this I realize, but let's not delve into that.
