Its possible she sees some kind of weakness there for her to exploit and is testing the waters of what she can get. 

When we've bought property, if the seller is unrepresented or if they have a weak agent...we pretty much fleece them (sorry, I have a duty to our investors and our customers).

In the last years seller financing has become a very rare thing - bank money is so cheap, that only very weak buyers will prefer it and to buy often times a less than great deal.Step one would be in my book find a local commercial broker who is willing to represent you.

I think they do a decent job on working a loan, every company has its strengths and weaknesses but I would not disqualify a company because it’s portal is awful as long as it provides me a snap shot or updates on a loan.

They are easy to put together but the finish is a bit weak. 

@Ryan ThomaAs a private money broker, I find that each lender has their strength and weaknesses when it comes to building spec homes.

In a seller's market, it's a very weak offer and most sellers won't go for it.Same thing can be done with the buyer's commission.

Again, that’s another weak and sweeping/stereotypical comment and assessment.

Single tenant has risk too if area is bad, tenant too weak, rent above market tenant is paying due to high tenant improvement credits from owner to get them in their and opening,etc.Hope things turn around for your investments soon. 

Less concessions in a weak market = more vacancy.
