Property I was looking to purchase was taken off the market

[David Stone]

There is a duplex I have been waiting to buy that has been on the market for a while. I had to wait 6 months to be able to take out the equity from my primary residence (FHA) for the down payment on the duplex. Well, January 7th will be 6 months and then I can start the process of purchasing the duplex. The only problem is today while browsing Zillow and Realtor.com, I discovered that it has been taken off the market. I do have a realtor that I am working with and who would tentatively help close the deal. I was wondering what would be the best course of action in trying to acquire the duplex? Wasn't sure what dynamics would be changed by the listing being removed?

The process should be the same in regards to the financing. 

Have your realtor either call the expired listing agent or have your realtor contact the homeowner now. Find out why it was taken off the market and if they are interested in selling the property still.

Happy hunting!
