I can concede this may have been done at error.

As soon as you start taking refuge in the odds of the bank foreclosing you concede my point.By the way — do you have an interest in getting people to buy subject to, either through a course you offer for consideration, or from property you want to lay off? 

There may be some legal and title complexities that arise if there is an open escrow and they sell the property to someone else after you.Personally, when faced with a similar situation regarding the release of an EMD I made it clear I would not budge, even if it meant the money sat in an escrow account for years... they eventually conceded.   

I concede I'm a bit conservative but look in the mirror and tell yourself honestly that you have practically no real estate knowledge and no real estate experience and then ask yourself is that's the footing you want to be on as a basis for totally disrupting your life and risking $250k. 

I concede that this will be difficult to execute in Charleston (affording a house with STR potential as a FTHB straight out of college), so you may have to take a stair-step approach.In the meantime, get involved with the local REI community.

Old lender wants to sell on Tuesday, but we are not conceding to relinquishing the LLC for his benefit. 

I do not think this is a good plan (the part about adjusting rent of current unit).Why concede rents in a hot market?

When the other party doesn’t feel needed and they need to sell or buy they’ll be more likely to concede for their delays, issues, etc.

@Axel MeierhoeferThank you for your thoughtful response and an alternative to consider.I concede that insurance of that type may have some value but I'm reasonably certain (though I don't know every home warranty policy that's available) that most, if not all, do not cover every expensive mistake a builder can make (whether intentionally or unintentionally), I don't know what their fine print says and I don't know how honorable the companies are when a legitimate claim is handed to them. 

($485k) Sellers are conceding, buyers are leveraging.
