In laws are distressed sellers

[Chris Roche]

my in laws are distressed sellers of their house and are short selling and can't seem to find a buyer for their house.  I think it is mostly because their agent is terrible.  I feel like there is a way to make some money on this but how?  I don't have the funds to buy the house and then hold it while it sells.  It's been on the market for a while with not a lot of activity.

Little to no activity equals PRICE, CONDITION, or BOTH. Blaming the agent is just a scapegoat response. Even if the agent sucked and the price was good you would still likely have offers.

Being it's in your in-laws would not touch the situation with a ten foot pole. Sometimes financial gain is not worth what is attached to achieving it.
