If you aren't invested in a syndicate, why not? 

To my non-professional locksmith eyes the blanks all look the same but the copies of my master key aren't turning the lock.

High quantity of responses doesn't mean quality.

In the name of 'asset protection', low fixed rates aren't available to you. 

In my opinion, the values aren't going down so you have to start riding the wave at some point in time. 

The rents just aren't that high.

Finding, offering and closing aren't instantaneous, and say for example your lease ends up overlapping by a month or two with your new property.  

In either case, a lot of the "COVID Rules" are statewide.I would consult an attorney to make sure you aren't opening yourself up to liability.I would also have the tenants sign something saying they agree to the ending of the lease. 

And that they aren't going to pay for anything.I'm struggling to see what next steps we can take given that (1) the home inspector did a good job identifying issues, (2) the Sellers didn't provide documentation that these were pre-existing issues prior to renting-back, and (3) they have been a hassle since renting back.

I've been involved in a few 203ks and from my experience, as long as the current owner walks away confident in the deal and the offer is solid, they aren't as concerned with the 203k side of things.
