Buyer showed up unannounced multiple times before buying property
I have a nightmare buyer.
He wanted lots of work done before buying. We did it..put 7K in escrow as an earnest deposit.
Then he demanded more things before closing not on contract like evicting tenants he didn't like bc of a boyfriend staying there and having them out before buying..or trying to evict them for things we're not illegally allowed to do like having an emotional support animal he didn't want in there.
He showed up multiple times unannounced the weekend before it was supposed to close. Hanging out inside the house with the workers and tenants. At least 3 times he was there..only once was announced.
We're now 2 weeks out of contract and we tried to negotiate with him...offering an extra 500$ for an eviction if he wants to proceed with one after buying. But he now wants another walk thru before buying another week out..and I'm worried he is just trying to find another loop hole of not buying and us potentially losing the 7K escrow.
