Buyer before I start a Rehab?
I've come across an interesting situation where I'm about to start a Rehab and may have someone that is interested in securing first dibs on purchasing it before we start. They like the idea of a newly renovated home in their price range that they can add personal touches to. I like the idea of having a built in buyer.
I would appreciate some feedback on pros and cons and best practices to protect everyone's interest.

It's very common.
Pros, makes your life easier.
Cons, you put in custom requests and they end up not buying.
