How do you work with drug addicts?
Seller has no money to pay utilities or buy groceries. I’m 99% sure they’re drug addicts. The seller owns the house free and clear. He says he doesn’t want to sell because he has no where to go. He’s calling me asking me to buy him groceries.
How do you help somebody like this?
I’d like to wholesale it or do a seller finance deal with this seller.

I don't work with drug addicts. That's the best answer. Why would he think you should buy him groceries?
Anyway, you can't help someone like this. You're trying to get a deal from you, he's trying to bamboozle you and string you along on the hope that he'll sell and you'll spend money trying to make it happen like buying him some Twinkies and Doritos.
You should go down the road.
