I would pay the minimum to preserve credit and then when you sell a flip pay them off.Make sure nothing additional can be charged or used.

I get more than 6% sometimes on my deals.The brokers/agents going out of business has been touted for decades and it still hasn't happened.On flips when the market was hot any idiot could buy a property and make a ton of mistakes.With everything rising they could still most of the time eek out a profit.If they really knew what they were doing they could hit a grand slam.Today you have to do everything perfectly to preserve your margins.You have to go after properties that regular home buyers can't get financing on or are too ugly for them to want.Investors looking to buy paint and carpet only jobs to flip are looking for a needle in a haystack.I don't deal with wholesalers much when I list an REO or a commercial short sale.All they want to do is collect a fee.When I list it the bank and or the seller in pre-foreclosure knows I can easily find them an actual buyer who wants to own the property for awhile and does not need a wholesale price.The bank doesn't care about the wholesaler trying to be a middle man.The bank wants the highest net and so does the seller in pre-foreclosure usually to reduce their 1099-C phantom tax potential.My friends that flipped during the hot times form years ago are now doing development projects redoing downtown warehouse spaces for conversions using government grants etc. to offset costs.They aren't really playing in the residential flip market anymore because of higher risk now and lower profit margins.

So some people have 500,000,1,000,000 already that they made in stocks or another profession.What they usually don't have is time to manage flips etc. and want a more turnkey investment.I have clients that are very wealthy and they are selling because they are at the end of their life and want to retire or they just want a credit rated product that will keep up with yearly inflation.In the beginning you take more risk to build wealth and later on minimize it to preserve it.

The negotiator is full of crap.Promissory notes can be negotiated all the time.Sometimes it is better for the owner to let the property foreclose instead.Even if they sign a promissory note they can file a chapter 7 after the short sale and wipe out the amount owed.It's impossible to answer your question without knowing the sellers intentions.Are they trying to preserve credit??
