Any help and suggestions are greatly appreciated. 

Market is crazy right now with multiple offers on most buildings that are priced right, so definitely a great time to sell!

We have consulted with a real estate attorney who suggested negotiating with the landowner.

I've even made an offer on a distressed property in my last trip and had a great experience negotiating and trying to workout a deal.

Waterfront homes, particularly those with Gulf access, can command higher prices and potentially higher returns on investment.3) Tourism and Vacation Rentals: Cape Coral's proximity to popular tourist destinations like Fort Myers Beach and Sanibel Island makes it attractive for vacation rentals, especially during peak tourist seasons.4) Affordability: Compared to other coastal areas in Florida, Cape Coral offers relatively affordable real estate options.

I made the owner a lower offer and asked for 25K back in credits.

Has anyone offered all cash then immediately refinanced to get the cash out? 

Hard to beat the cashflow that this city can offer.

I would suggest a duplex or tri or quad instead of a single family property.

They offer day and night classes during the week and on weekends.
