@Kevin Moyer One factor that may or may not affect your decision is that the PAR lease is approved by the Pa State Attorney General Office as being "Plain Language" as defined by the Pa.

I need to start researching areas more in-depth though; because I'm still not very knowledgeable of the important factors in evaluating an area.   

J Scott’s book “Recession Proof Real Estate Investing” gives great info on the topic.However, Buy in area of pop growth, job growth, rent growth and high economic job diversity (near major city/economic driver) and an election/recession could be non-factor.

This building is owner paid utilities, which is probably a considerable factor as to why the expenses are so high in the OM.After sharing my thoughts on both buildings, we mulled it over to see where the opportunity lied.

Of course your area may have different cost factors. 

Modern technology has made that a non factor.

Atlanta appears to have all three of these factors and more, and Chinese buyers are aware of it.

She also listed a number of other factors that's making the sale difficult. 

Depends on lots of factors but keep in mind you will need property reserves for your rental (6 months) plus a down pmt of 3.5% min if you can go FHA. 

Based on my experience, every time I exit early because I gave my investors a great return on their money, they are happy and they tend to reinvest in the next deal.So my vote is to sell early - also another factor is that the market right now is good for selling.
