However, you could also make it clear that if they try to go around you, it would be **tortious inducement of breach of contract.Of course, I prefer to do business only with established buyers in my market and you should too so you never have these kinds of problems.

As far as bum, in my numerous visits in the property..

.), you'd see that the appraiser comments on if the purchase contract contains inducements to buy, unusual terms/conditions for that market, etc, and the contract purchase price is right there on page one.

Then offer some sort of inducement - that also improves the property. 

I was a bit bummed when I found out as that's the institution that we always use for HELOCs.

For example, if they want to get a $1,000 smartphone, they will skip two month's rent and two month's gas or electric, then pay all three later when the landlord and utility threatens legal action.A classic example: I had someone bum several hundred dollars off me last year, crying that she had no money for groceries or anything.

It usually doesn't work since the systems and work is entirely different.Yes, fixed price contracts, assuming this will be a fixed contract is a very strong inducement. 

Good honest people don't suddenly become bums because of some misfortune.

I'm kinda bummed I missed this!

In my opinion, you did very thorough due diligence but unfortunately, we got a bum tenant from the start in spite of the screening that was done so I understand why you are unhappy but I have to disagree with your comment that I didn't care about providing you with a solid product.
