In the Schedule B Exceptions from Coverage of the title commitment, it states a "Memorandum of Option" between previous seller and buyer in 2013.

If they didn’t then they committed fraud!

Almost all agents will say they are willing to work with investors, but you need to make sure you and the agent are a good fit for each other before you commit to any extended service agreement. 

I know it is not easy, but I am sure is not impossible when someone has the commitment and desire to go for their goals and vision.

Try to get her commit to a firm date.Lastly, don't cut off the utilities - it'll be an easy case against you for constructive eviction.

Stay committed and creative BP community.

The biggest lesson I learned was I can do this, I don't need to be terrified I just needed to make the commitment and get it done Doing this was the best teacher because I learned so much more than reading books and watching videos.

This is a grand opportunity to drive the price down with the seller if you're buying with the right fixit-man skill set -- you're not.If you do this, you're making a major commitment, the kind of thing so far out of a typical hands-off investor's comfort zone that it will take her/him into a danger zone.

Doesn't mean you need a commitment upfront, but you should have a list of potential financing options/people you can go to as soon as you get a deal under contract.
