The contract doesn't outline the process for termination at this early stage though, again, it's my lesson to learn, I will be wiser and more careful about this the next time I sign a contract with any PM!

So while you can't use contingent/pending comparables to determine what you can potentially sell your property for, you should pay attention to the data. 

We just closed a duplex for a VA buyer yesterday and this was the same situation they were in so we had to actually sell their first home to open up the entitlement capabilities to then buy a better property that they will occupy for 2 years, then move to the next project. 

Due to item 1, adding an ADU can require years to start achieving any return (once the accumulated cash flow recovers the initial negative position).4) Adding an ADU is a slow process.

**Full Disclosure - I am also not in the process of getting a divorce or even considering it :) ***

The problem is these are automated values that don't factor things in like views, condition, or even if one block of homes sells for more or less than another. 

Or you could sell and do a house hack on a duplex to 4 plex.

I know EXACTLY where and how my numbers work and if I take longer than expected on construction and the sell (dispo- Sale)Let me ask you a question, if I loaned you 100k at 20% interest and you had no money out of pocket cause you used a gap lender at 9 %, and you still made $15k in 3-4 months OR MORE (I shoot for 15% profit), would you use the hard money loan to gain experience, knowledge and then leverage into better Interest rates the more you do?

Eventually, once the units have appreciated a bit and the mortgage has been paid down to the point we have 20% equity, we split the parcels into individual town homes and then she refinances her unit out and I refinance the three units out or sell them. 

Although it appears to be in the process of being gentrified with home prices in that area increasing 72% over the last 5 years.
