I'd be inclined to do a lease option with her.

I'm inclined to think that if you don't get a response from Zillow then the apartment maybe overpriced or there is some other issue with the unit that needs to be addressed. 

I see potential and people who are inclined to help but just dont want to put in the effort.

I wasn't particularly inclined to sue them - just really did not know what my options were - I wasn't even sure I could cancel the deal because of this. 

Moreover, in worst case scenario, I don't want to own their 3 rental if they default.My inclination is still to put the lien on the subject property.

Even a historical contractor in the area if you are so inclined. 

I think it was already suggested but I would go straight to the listing agent, they would be more inclined to work with you.

More looking for, “I went into a similar situation with my eyes open to the issues at hand, thought I had the bases covered and still got burned because of X.”I’m inclined to help this person out because if it works out it’s good business.

If you have the time and the inclination, become the Sponsor; they make more.To be clear, we are buying 70+ unit B or C class apartment complexes. 

I'd be interested in what other feedback your receive from potential buyers as well if you'd be inclined to share.Best of luck with the sale!
