Creative financing help, ideas

[Susan Clark]

I’m looking for ideas on how I might make a deal work. I’m looking st a duplex thara beencp the market for aome tIme, needs work, and has dropped In prIce 15k sInce It went on the market. The owner was recently widowed and doesn’t want to care for the properties alone. So she’s sold of all the other properties and this one remains. She was interested and willing to hold the mortgage with me but when she checked with her attorney he said that’s not really possible since this is in an estate. My question is, does anyone have ideas I could present her with that might work around the estate or is that a done deal or an issue that can’t be creatively worked around. Thank you
