Long story short, we ultimately lowered our home price to $297k, and we're still unable to sell it. 

I have gone through my numbers on a few duplexes and after listening to the bigger pockets book I realized there is a lot to go into these calculations. 

This all started by accident when, in 2012, we attempted to sell the house we own in Florida and quickly realized we were upside-down.

@Andrew FauknerIt ultimately depends on the type of investment that you have with realty shares or groundfloor.If you have an equity/partnership investment with them - you are considered a partner/member of an investment.

The tenants’ security deposits should transfer to the new owner (you in this case) because you’ll ultimately be responsible for returning them to the tenants when they move out.

I realized two things amongst many others is as follows for future transactions and would like to gain some advice on the same from you all experienced people :1.

Ultimately, whether or not you decide to take them to small claims court will depend on many factors that only you can evaluate, such as how much money is owed, whether or not it's worth your time to try and recover that money, the likelihood of being able to collect on a judgment if you are successful in court, etc.Good luck.

Crash calling is fun and can make for some lively debates but it's sort of an exercise in futility because ultimately the market will do what it will do without regard for what any of us say or think.  

You can invest only the amount you want to defer the capital gain from your realized gain. 

I realize this will increase the mortgage payment and eat into any profits if we rent, but we can easily afford it and would like to get the sucker paid off.Any and all advice is super appreciated!!
