Sellers want their cash. A lease option as a purchase strategy only works when the seller has a need to sell. It was a decent play when things wouldn't sell if you want to work the pretty house business, not so much when the average DOM is under a week.
You've got to think like a seller when you are trying to buy. When I worked with the public, the first question I asked was "tell me about your situation" because if there wasn't a motivating factor in that answer I was off the phone in under a minute. The most frustrating thing you'll run into in this biz is trying to talk an unmotivated seller into being motivated. Just doesn't work.
