I recomend we begin building a relationship and get to know who we are and what we bring to the table.

What if I "sell" the house to him for let's say $300K, he gets a conventional mortgage to get the hard money first of $240K paid off and brings his 20% down payment of $60K + closing costs to the table, and then closes on the purchase.

What will you give in hopes that they will take something they want off the table?

Basically, kitchen table, family room furniture, basic bathroom stuff and a master bedroom.

A few reasons why.1) After rehabbing and closing costs, you are well OVER fair market value.2) The bank holds no prejudice as to who gets the property, Why would they wait for you if they have "multiple" offers on the table.

Now the tenant is breaking the sec 8 law as well as the landlord by paying money under the table.

Would it be better to just ditch the one with the bad credit even though she can bring a significant investment to the table?

Not only are you doing a good service but you get first crack at everything before the banks get to NOD it and screw it all up.Drawings are on the table for this I have met with people working on it in various teams with different approaches.

How do you know for sure that there is another offer on the table for $305k?

I, as well as the other Guide Dog handlers I know, agree that we overcompensate for our lack of sight - we thoroughly examine (with our hands) our dogs daily or more, and I personally, massage my dog daily (twice a day if I think she needs it).
