It’s not an excuse, but I’d point that out to them myself first, and be sure to add “in good faith.”

Treating this child like we treat everyone, as we hand the document to sign: "And this is the no smoking addendum, just be aware, dont allow anyone on the property to smoke here, inside or outside, its impossible to get the smell out of the house" How would you approach this?

Leverage can be a great thing but its a calculated risk , and a lot of people put too much faith on the upside and little consideration  for the downside .

I still have risks and I'm putting a lot of faith in these providers, but I was tired of not taking action and ultimately realized that what was stopping me from action wasn't money it was knowledge. 

Off of the purchase contract, I would verify proof of funds, ask for prequalification letter from a lender if buyer is receiving a loan, with a good faith deposit.
