Seller wants Earnest Money

[Jesse Andrews]

Hey All-

Met with a motivated seller last night, and it seems a go! The numbers are going to work, and I am ALMOST in contract with my first deal.

The seller is an ex- RE agent, and wants "good faith" earnest money.

How would you all go about this? Pay 1k out of pocket (making sure my 10 day inspection period is solid)

Not too sure what to say/do or how to respond.

Any information will be appreciated!

thanks

Jesse
