Take a deep breath, let it out slowly, then do it again.Now that you're calm take a good look at the advice you got in this thread and follow it.

I try to spend the summers up there myself - it's just really special with great local bakeries/farms/foods, total relaxation with waterfalls and mountains and art/music festivals.Notes for all - You can easily check Airbnb to see what people are charging in any area and see their calendars to see how booked they are.  

Find a good partner and keep calm :) There were points during the process when I was extremely frustrated (with the seller...with the buyer...with our title company), and it was during those points that my partner stepped in and took over.

I, thinking she had calmed down, went back to the task at hand when in walked Marta again.

Of course, if you are able to calmly explain your next steps with the owner of the firm ( ie that the gates of hell could soon be opening) I suspect they may cooperate in winding down the relationship and even amending any wrongful fees or charges. 

Don't make any changes for a while to let everything calm down.

Many have told me I have a way with being diplomatic and calm in tense situations. 

calm those nerves,then get the job done

I will take that work ethic and skills (being organzied with prep, having to execute, that can't quit mentality getting through a lunch or dinner rush, being in the weeds, staying calm in the storm)...and apply to to investing.

The key is to remain quiet and calm and just let it go.
