Was ready to do an earnest money deposit but the kicker is, she already submitted short sale docs to bank two weeks ago..which is understandable. Found out about the short sale submission last evening. I really was hoping for a wholesale, as I cannot afford to do a Subject To current 2k mortgage payment. How to handle?? Deal still or No Deal?
