Where in his post does he say the seller has financing "all bound up" together?
That is my reason for selecting the word "probably".
If the seller did have blanket financing, how do you know the lender doesn't allow a release?
I don't. But all the instances I witnessed, the lender either would not do it at all or they dragged their feet to "unblanket" a property.
The OP didn't disclose the existing financing arrangements of the seller's property or even if the properties (one or more) are encumbered.
Alright.....ok.......ahah....
In this market, which is flush with cash buyers and 1031 exchange money, as has been the case for a while, it's not hard to sell bundles of property regardless of financing seller side financing. I've sold multiple bundles (Q=2, 4, 5, 10, 25) and bought multiple (Q=8, 3 twice, …) and the tradeoff is one sale vs. listing separately in MLS and potentially having staggered closings for X months. Most prefer one sale, but the reality is that when using MLS the broker will 99% of the time say something like 'part of 9 total properties for sale, individually or bundled.'
