What do I do to help some one that wants to sell their home so they can retire?

[Anthony Morgan,Sr]

I am trying to assist a coworker. He has a home free and clear that he was going to sell for $250k in Independence, MO. He has since dropped the price to 219K. I asked him if he would be willing to take $200K for the beautiful home he has. He would consider it!!!!!.

I am new to this but I want to help this guy out so bad. This would be my 1st entry into the RE field. Where is the formal offer made and how do I set up a contract that will get him the cash he would take for this deal to go through.

I have not done anything to make an offer, other than to see if he would consider my offer. He can be considered a co-worker and a friend. Would some one help me and  him PLEASE?????!!!!!
