First off, I would suggest sticking to Buffalo, as thats's where taxes are the lowest (as you mention - relatively speaking) and you'll find the biggest supply of doubles (I second Sam Tato in the supply remarks) and tenants. 

I would be more concerned with this statement in the "broker remarks" section of the listing: "it is a mess; two attorneys involved that must agree to offer..."

I have First American wrote down too but with no remarks by their name so I'm thinking they were a GO.

First of all, let me say that some of my above remarks seem a little strong and I must have been a little critical as there are several on BP that could do a good job of underwriting I would think, at least sufficient to stay out of trouble.

While he should have his finance or private remarks options in the ML listed as "CASH ONLY" just makes him more incompetent vs shady IMO.

Your story is remarkable!

Thankfully, once you get past a certain point, you come here to BP, read stories about totally inexperienced landlords losing the s**t because of trivial issues, or saying wholly ignorant things about low-income people, or just ridiculous things about contractors ripping them off for minor repairs, and you laugh, not unkindly.

Now that I’ve taken care of that snarky remark from Wayne that completely missed the point.  

As a listing agent I'm one who states in my broker remarks that commission will be paid on NET sales price and explicitly define it as [GROSS Sales Price] - [Seller Concessions] = [NET Sales Price].

Did you put it in the realtor remarks section or when did you disclose?
