Making an offer on a property but to Sellers Partner. Help

Hey Everyone,

Hope all is well. I have a lead that was called in from my postcard campaign. When the gentleman initially called me he left a message with the address of the property in the VM. When I returned the call I asked him if he was the owner because his name was no where in the tax records. He mentioned he is the partner of the seller and the seller wants $60,000 for the property. I asked if I can speak with the seller but he refused and explained to me the seller has a lot going on and would rather communicate through him.

Since the property was not too far from me I decided to check it out and I think its a solid deal I can wholesale. I have 3 buyers who love the area. I can possible wholesale it between $55,000-$62,000. My issue is I really would rather communicate with the seller. The gentleman did have the keys and was able to gain me access but I feel like he may come between the deal.

Has anyone experienced something like this? Is there anything I could say to convince him that I need to speak with seller to proceed? I was going to mention to him that my title company would need to speak with him. Any help with be great?
