Get a lender, enter into contract, close escrow, enjoy your new home. if you have less than 30 days, you would need the seller's cooperation to contact the foreclosing entity to see if they will postpone to give you time to close the deal. it's not guaranteed and the lender is under no obligation to do so but if everyone wins (seller sells, lender gets paid off in full, you get a home), most lenders will provide a small window of time to get it done.

Most commerical lenders want $1M or more minimum.You might reach out to Nikki Cooper at Truliant Federal Credit Union if you have not already.You may just have to ride our existing loan until lease rate is bumped again.

Yes, Cooper, they are buying redemption rights from the former owner.

Hey Cooper,Kingsway West and Academy can be dangerous areas... the Delmar divide is a general rule of thumb, north of Delmar is rundown while south of the street is a lot nicer.

I lost the renters due to them not wanting to cooperate for showings. 

I've been finding a good amount of Tampa, cooperation owned, Properties who have stopped a project for xyz reason and just listed it as it sits.

Oftentimes the seller won't cooperate, isn't available, believes the buyer tricked them and gets an attorney involved, and gets investigated.

@Cooper B. thanks for reaching out.  

Last year I had a similar situation with solar city and they were very cooperative.

What if its a particularly hostile former homeowner who doesn't cooperate with anything?
