cash only? REO

[Jared Kulp]

This might be a simple question but I would like some input. I've been watching a house on the mls that is listed as a "REO and cash buyers only." How flexible is this? I've discussed with a lender about financing a deal and they seem cozy with me, so are they (seller) usually willing to entertain a different way of paying for it or is it "show up with cash and that's it". Thanks for any advice/info.
