When the PR is confirmed the Administration process has started.When you contact the decedents relative's show compassion and sympathy in your discussion...

@Steven Crosby  as long as your actually closing and not assigning the contracts then I think your letter is fair.. if your just using it to enter into a contract with say a bogus pre qual from a HML who will give them to anyone for a small fee or for free then no I think its right back to the old bait and switch routine which is well let your moral compass guide you on what it is.if your closing then I like it.. when I did pre foreclosure work before they basically made it illegal or unprofitable out here on the west coast.. many of the letters I would see in peoples homes that they shared or when I bought them at court house steps people would leave the letters on the counter.if someone is in foreclosure at least in that time period they got no less than about 200 plus letters and post cards.. the ones that make you gag are the ones that come off.. " Mr. home owner I was just like you I too was in foreclosure so therefore I know what you going through.. blah blah blah.. " and when they see about 20 of those with the same message even the dullest tool in the shed can realize 99% of the direct mail are not people out to save the day for this poor unfortunate family.

Andrew, I am the Broker at Compass Property Mgmt LLC.

If we all treated our fellow man (and women) with compassion, instead of just trying to take advantage, this world would be a much better place.

(Plus I am willing to allow my moral compass may be skewed toward legality;)).So, thanks Conor Flaherty for the post.

I suggest beginning with the calibration of a moral compass as to what ethical might before starting any new plan.  

Thank you for the honesty, integrity, and compassion that you display.

No one can or should give you legal advice here in the forums, so my first advice would be to ask a real estate attorney here in Florida what your options are, after they review your contract and the associated documentation and correspondence.That being said, you may very well find that the executed written contract is binding, and the seller may have a hard time getting out of it just because she changed her mind.Thus it may come down to your moral compass - do you feel better taking the deal with this stigma attached, or walking away and finding another one?

While we are in the business to make money, we also have a moral responsibility to not be so hard nosed that we lose what makes us human, that being compassion.

Most men would say this is a job for a woman because it requires love, attention, compassion and sometimes tenderness.
