Newbie wanting my 1st contract

A gentleman contacted me via email because he wants to sell his moms home before he leaves the country. He says he and whom ever he is working with cannot agree on a price. I asked are you working with a RE agent or Investor? I am waiting on that answer because we are emailing. I also asked earlier how much did he want for the house. He says, 60k. Prior to me asking I checked with Zillow to get a Zestimate of 68k. I have now asked Ned's #1 question : Do you need to get any money out of this or do you just want this problem to go away?

Ok he just emailed me back as I am writing this:

Right now I am not working with an agent or investor. I do need to get some money out of this. Presently, my 89 yr old Aunt is still residing in the house, but we are working diligently to get her into a senior citizens place where she would be comfortable. I do want this problem to go away for good. I do not know of any liens against the property. I can be contacted on xxx-xxx-xxxx, if you have any further questions or concerns. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

How should handle this from this point? Do I just walk away?
