Advice Needed: FSBO Off Market Opportunity

[Joseph Banko]

The family of an elderly home owner wishes to sell their single family home without listing it on the market.  I happen to be actively looking for a new primary residence (live-in flip) with the assistance of my buyer's agent.  I found this deal, not my buyer's agent.  I'm pre-approved for a conventional loan with underwriting complete.  What's the best move here?  How does one buy directly from an owner, with a loan, and both sides benefit mutually?
