no one - not an agent, a wholesaler, a contractor, an appraiser - is going to take any responsibility whatsoever for anything. 

Remain responsible for rent, utilities, and other terms until a replacement tenant takes over.#2 can be a bad option in the middle of winter when renters are harder to find.

I have sent a funds demand via email but have not gotten a response.

You’re acting as the assignor, so once the assignment agreement is signed, the buyer takes on the financial responsibilities outlined in the PSA, including the EMD submission.

There are great responses in here.

Thanks for the response, I understand they won't probably be up front in their responses to your questions 2 and 3, but there is a reason you are asking.

I like @Tim Ryan's response best.

You really want unbiased investor advice so I would focus more on the responses that are from investors (or anyone) living in one area in their bio, but telling you about another area that the invest in where they have no vested interest.It's not to say that all agents are spamming, most is pretty reliable advice on their area, but it's still to be considered with a grain of salt.You are giving everyone too wide a scope to help you - anywhere in the US, and then limited to the Midwest (huge), and others.

You want an accountant who can help you strategize and who is responsive when you want to know the consequences of the financial decisions you are making throughout the year.Good luck.

I’ll definitely raise the question with them.Thanks for the response.
