A more realistic expectation is 24 hours which will ensure we can arrange any repairs or corrections with a team, handle it in person, etc.This part is ridiculous. 

If seller financing is the route you go, you might consider getting creative with the structure to make it work for both parties.

It is common practice for mortgage companies to later sell the already funded loan to a 3rd party like a hedge fund or a bank after the fact.

There are thousands of websites out there that are disguised as helping the public find the best of the best but at the end of the day its simply taking your info and selling it to a 3rd party as a lead.If you are trying to buy a home or an investment property and you have good to excellent credit you should always use an FDIC Bank or Credit Union.

The seller was not getting much traction from the other interested parties.

Additionally, when a problem arises, those problems get addressed and all parties involved are updated.Being a property manager is a hands-on / high touch vertical.

Casino does not reimburse when a person looses.

Even if a title company were to manage the setup making sure all parties are paid, the cheap debt and cash flow would not be enough to be enticing to any investor even if midterm rental could yield a healthy return. 

So if the potential resident wants to drag their feet, but another party books on AirBnB, then that's just unfortunate for the FF lead. 

I have seen a number of cases locally where a party clearly did something illegal like this whether it be a landlord tenant or someone hiring a contractor.
