On the other hand, areas like Sugar Land and Pearland have been less affected due to their accessibility to the medical center.  

Offices, medical, retail, whatever you want.

Does medical reasons qualify for hardship status?

Spaces that are under 10,000 SF can easily adapt of office space, medical space, and can work for hundreds of types of businesses.  

I am slowly recovering medically and doing things I have never been able to do.  

I have not been in a workforce in the medical area for the past 6 years.

I have been learning about investing full time about 15 months while I medically recover.  

I would envision the initial deal that you originally intended to close on.Then factor in the other issues: seller's lack of ability to sell without the old liens and his need to accelerate the sale due to medical issues.You can buy now but must engineer a way to reverse risk and put back on to seller.

I don't really care what you make "gross" when you pay out half of that in 401K, medical benefits, alimony, child support, blah blah blah.

I know that many on these forums advise not to get too bogged down with info and that since nobody will ever know all the information available, that it is important to make your first move.I'm recently medically retired, but still actually pretty young and am looking to get involved in RE investing.
