Hey, love the bp family, and first time posting here i hope i can get some advice.so long story short, I had a contract fall through on a triplex due to the mortgage being denied (I tried to purchase it as a primary residence and the seller won't vacate any of the tenants so I couldn't continue with the purchase).Now the seller is fighting me on the earnest money, we are past the financing contingency date (30 days) but its due to the seller not vacating a tenant as we verbally agreed on (his tenants are on short-term leases) not due to my finances.I will probably consult on attorney on this one but was wondering if anyone has some advice or has been in a similar situation until then P.s im in jacksonville FL area.thanks!

UPDATE: So, a moment ago she follows up with a task rabbit screenshot - the total says $305.88 dated in November - but I cant tell the service performed. 

You can filter for expired listings by all sorts dates, get the owner's address, phone numbers, email addresses and you can even download all sorts of trust deed, grant deeds, or whatever you call them.

Don't get me wrong: Your agent should explain the terms and conditions and ensure you are comfortable with what you are signing, and they absolutely should make sure all parties understand the timelines, key dates, and deadlines. 

For instance, you may ask your Properties Manager to brief you about the up-to-date cost of rehabbing a 2 Beds, 1 Bathroom average-sized unit in the market.

Closing Date - some sellers want to close sooner and some later.

We changed the locks, police left, texted the tenants saying if you want any more of this stuff, arrange a single time with me before x date (1 month store of belongings required) to pick it up.

I currently have about 100k in equity to date from when I purchased.

We give my landlord pre-dated checks for a year in advance to make sure rent is always pay on time.  

Just explain to them you have to go in and bring the property up to date.
