Yes that was the unit I was referring to in the The Residences thank you. So the ROFR process was not / has not been set up yet for The Residences? Either way if I see the same deal for $10K I'll take a run at it for sure.

This sale executed prior to the official opening of the Residences in June 2018. I would expect that ROFR would now be in effect given the property is open, however you have little to lose by trying.

(I am putting aside $ for the next downturn...)

Luck purchase I guess. So not knowing the details of the sale it sounds like someone bought it pre construction/opening and immediately dumped it. I believe he said it was initially listed on eBay.
