Haven't made the final decision, but there are some compelling reasons to go with this one. 

I think that's a great decision.

Personally, I wouldn't even start looking for deals until this was lined up because when you are up against a lot of excellent cash buyers and you are interested in getting deals with equity, you need to have the ability to move quickly and decisively---be the buyer that is remembered and the deals will come :) 

I trade the futures market I know first hand how hard the market is. 

I would be thankful for the quality of tenant you have after you admittedly rushed the decision. 

I’m away at a trade show right now in Las Vegas, but I’m back on Monday.Kevin 

It could be a great solution to the problem but try to verify this prior to making the decision.  

I'm based out of the Chicago market (a newbie) and am trying to get some help in narrowing down neighborhoods to focus on, whether that be within the city limits or the surrounding suburbs.What tools are typical in guiding your decisions to focus from broad areas of search to down to smaller neighborhoods of focus?

Be sure you can control the trades.
