Lease Option Advice

I am looking to purchase 2 identical bldgs. Each is a 4-plex for a total of 8 units. Each is separately deeded with its’ own tax ID number.



List Price:

Prop A 340,000

Prop B 340,000



NOI

A. 29,580

B. 30840



Gross Rents

A. 37440

B. 38700



I have $50,000 cash and I plan to put down 10% on property A. I expect closing costs to be around $10k. My credit is between 720 and 800 among the 3 bureaus.



The dilemma is that the seller wants to sell both properties at the same time. However I do not have funds for a down payment on the 2nd property. Each property is separately deeded.

A third identical property down the street sold for 326,000 in May 2006.



My questions;



Does it make sense to tie prop B up in a lease option?



What terms should I add to the option?



Do you have boiler plate of a lease option that I can review?



Is there a better way to acquire these properties or structure this deal?





thanks,



Oak
