I have one rental in Louisiana and when we got flooded... the rental lease is not in effect anymore as the house is not live able.... it's a pain if u don't have insurance.... if ur renters are good for it.... at least ask them to take out their stuff in the curb... a lot of renters just here just left.... and landlords has to do all the hauling away of their thrash too...On the gentle note.... pls be cautious when talking with renters... pls be kind and understandable that they too lost a lot of their possessions aside from the fact that they might not have a house to rent as housing demand will be very high....

I would try texting the listing agent - she's had this property listed on and off since 2008 and has been dealing with the short sale (what a pain for an agent) - she's probably sick of it, not making any money on it and has probably been fielding a million calls from completely unqualified first time buyers who want that area but don't really pay attention to the details and don't have any cash - I would be clear in your communication with her that you understand the requirements and have the cash to close - I've had transactions with her in the past she's been around for a long time.
