If you choose to invest in that area I would suggest looking at the new builds and see what options they are providing.

But the simple math is that closer to retail you pay, the chances are the longer your capital is tied up to the property.

So I suggest you do a search on BP.

I was just seeing f If anyone had any suggestions on how to expedite the situation.

@Bell RosarioOkay.I'll give you some suggestions tomorrow.

Any suggestions on areas I should be looking?

Rental calculator seems to suggest this is a good deal according to 1% rule ( not quite 2% but looks pretty good to me already ), the rent estimate was a guess from a near by rental ( there aren't many rentals in Beavercreek somehow ).Above average SD , all three schools are rated 7 ( not sure if this is considered as B, B+ area ).Obviously the numbers would only make sense when the estimate rent can be archived, so my questions for Dayton / Beavercreek BPer - Does Beavercreek have high rental demands ?

Your assets are light for a deal this size to qualify.How debt works and ratio's involved will likely depend on what going in cap rate the income throws off with purchase price.There are hundreds of items to analyze when looking over a retail property and takes a lot of time and due diligence.The items listed for roof, parking lot, etc. can equal in to the six figures in costs so very substantial to repair or replace.

That's asking for all kinds of friction.Here's a short list on the lost value for honoring the "sweetheart" lease:Security depositPet rent and/or pet feeLoss of rents due to under marketHolding costs/vacancy/marketing when the tenant leaves "whenever he wants"Other operational headaches / PITA "tax"Your attorney should have suggested estoppel agreements as well as language in the contract that states no changes to or new leases can be signed by seller henceforth.

Instead I would suggest you continue to learn as much as possible.
