Need to Solve Sellers Problem BUT HOW?

I received a hot lead from a motivated seller who wants out of her house for the following reasons:

- Seller cannot cover mortgage alone so abusive daughter lives with seller to help pay mortgage (daughter arrested for domestic abuse)

- Seller is elderly and medically disabled (low income)

Any advice on how to help? My first reaction is to reach out to the local housing authority and get her to apply to the wait list for Section 8 and Public Housing but the average wait is very long and this lady NEEDS out of this house. Has anyone helped a seller in a similar situation?

    @Jaron Walling thanks! I can see this one dragging on. I will continue to be as helpful as I can be and see what comes of it. It’s an opportunity to learn if nothing else.
