The most important thing to a seller is trust, ie trusting you w/ their personal credit, trusting that you know how to execute, etc. 2nd most important thing is understanding the nuances of how to structure the deal. 3rd thing is to have a great attorney who knows how to bring it all together. 

This method, known as seller financing, can be executed in several ways.

Buy something you can afford, execute your strategy for a year or two and apply your many lessons learned to the next property which will be a better deal than the first.   

So if it is leased through spring 2025 you need to provide an executed lease termination agreement. 

The housing authority is a bit like a co-signer for the lease so they would just decline to sign on grounds of an unqualified property and the lease would never execute.  

Fraudsters can try to attack a free/clear property with many scams but if there is a mortgage they have to pay it off to execute.

Someone dropped the ball and poorly executed this mess.

(Sidenote: I am not sure why people would execute a contract and pay someone for a service that requires you to be active in that service where they could stop providing the service). 

Not quite American Greed 

I was eyeing the American standard cadet 3 toilets if I was to replace.
