Coming here is one of the best moves you've made to enhance your REI.

You could try leasing it with a separate purchase option (exercisable within 12-months).  

If they can't do that then I have an early termination clause in my lease they can exercise and get out now.They need to pay rent according to the lease or face the legal consequences (eviction).

The T/B will almost never exercise the option!

Exercise your creativity, as it is useful with real estate too.

Welcome to BP Community @Sharnell James ; a great place to enhance your REI knowledge. 

(Whichever length of time we agree upon.)If I exercise the option, I will purchase the property for $250,000, $257,500, or $265,000.

Our focus is on value-add (renovation, amenity enhancement) in transit-oriented locations in selected geographic areas with potential for rental growth through area amenities & job opportunities just to name a few attributes.

Yes, you can accelerate your portfolio and enhance it by adding a multi-family, you can take it to the next level by even consider living in one half and renting the other "house-hacking," if you are an owner occupant you can even use a 203k loan and acquire the home using 3.5% down and finance the entire renovation, as long as you stay within market value, this lets you enter the marketplace with very little down and use the banks money to renovate it.

My only point is that outsourcing to someone that you do not know to negotiate for you is an exercise in futility (in my humble opinion - as someone who has actually tried it).
