Closing in 3 days, Seller says he wants to keep the House
Hey BPers',
I ran into a new one today, I have had a property under contract for 10 days and closing is on Friday. Seller informs me today that he wants to keep the house, despite signing a contract. Contract has specific performance for seller in case of default. I realize he technically has to sell, but would like to come up with a creative strategy to make this work. Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
Stuart

Hard to advise,
is the profit worth getting a lawyer's expense involved?
Are you taking title or flipping paper?
Is playing hard ball going to hurt your reputation?
