I would figure out exactly who the decision makers are first, and then from there I would explain they can either lose the property entirely, or sell it to you and make $XX,XXX. for most reasonable people making something vs nothing make sense, but obviously relationships and emotions can determine how that goes.Good Luck

Emotions come into play, sellers want to feel like they are winning...let em feel that way and close.

Selling/buying/flipping/renting is an emotional process that can only be checked by numbers.

It's "Notice of lis pendens" and it basically means that there's been a lawsuit filed against the property usually when there's title dispute.As an investor, don't get emotionally attached to properties because it will end up costing you more money when you can't just walk away.

I realize he is your brother, but make sure you are not letting emotions get in the way of logic.

Here’s why:When they need a fast closingThey don’t want to go through the property listing process with brokersWhen they wanted to be selective about buyerWhen they want to make sure that the buyer will take good care of the propertyWhen the seller is emotionally connected with the propertyWhat I have been learning through this off-market experience is that buyers need to understand that everything is about sales.

Maybe I am a bit emotional about it as it’s my first investment and it’s good asset.What do you think, exit and benefit from the premium price now and reinvest again?

But that's TV, and to make (big money like you refer to) in Real Estate it takes specialized knowledge, TIME, and Money as well a the ability to handle Risk without breaking down mentally or emotionally....I'm not saying you can't do it--you certainly can...but it will most likely take time (in addition to your practice) and sometimes stress and TIME combined working at it.How long will it take...unknown.
