A truly "motivated" seller tends to not really care the amount of earnest money and you could also structure your EM due at end of your inspection period. 

Quote from @Bill H Reed: Have a question regarding this topic..I have several mobile homes in Tennessee and there's a large pasture behind them which has a lot of field mice and they have a tendency to get in the house there's no way to stop this..

I have a drywall guy that has me get all his drywall and mud and I pay him at end of job.

We were able to rent it out for $4,750/month the first year but the tenants moved out at end of lease in October, and we've been trying to fill the property since.

SEEKING feedback from other Sellers of rental or primary residence homes who have dealt with SINGH Development Company agreeing to Seller Carryback Finance terms and "the end result" from beginning to end of contract terms.The proposed offer is for 7 years, $600 monthly payment to Seller, balance due at end of 7 years, 0% interest as final overall price paid to Seller after 7 years from date of closing is inflated to $270,000.

Bc entropy sets in and as humans we all have a tendency to become lax with time.  

For example a property with a $100,000 door cost and very little capex is going to be a much better deal than a property across the street that is $80,000 per door but has significant deferred maintenance.So the analysis is preliminary and either can be used, but at end of the day you need to deep dive into the entire picture.

Lets say I lend someone $100k and in the first year I get $51k back and in year 2 I get 51k back, each year I got a 51% CoC but at end of day I made less than 1%.
