@Fuat BagseverHi Fuat,There are so many high cashflow markets across the US.Maybe look at purchasing another complex to offset your losses on the one you will closing on.I have been down this road with my portfolio in Australia where I owned numerous properties hoping they will appreciate in value.I have decided to not purchase a property anymore unless it is a heavy cash cow.Just my opinion.Thanks and have a great day.
