I have seen overages be FAR more than they would have got even selling it on the open market.. simply because they have no selling cost  no realtor fee.. no closing costs.. etc etc.. they just get a nice fat check.. out here on the west coast this can be 10 to 50k or it can easily be over 100k right into their pocket tax free and expense free. 

Assuming you can find another location for a decent rate, and your business won't belly up if you do move.The only leverage I can think of is the cost for the new owner to get the building ready. 

@Mike Cumbie, how about this scenarioI have a borrower who contacts me from one of my ads, from online or referred by a prior client who came to me the same way to purchase a homeSCENARIO: My borrower wants to buy a $500k home, so I get her completely approved in advance for her Max purchase power and issue an Approval letter for $625k and they have an Attorney Escrow Letter showing $20,000 of EMD They were thinking about working with their brother's, wife's, sister who a Realtor and who is willing to offer:     $0  Buyer Agent Realtor Rebate  They also met a nice Realtor at their kids' soccer game named Mike, who seemed like a good Realtor who is willing to offer:    $0   Buyer Agent Realtor RebateBut the Mortgage Broker wants to refer us to one of his Realtor Partners, who are Very Experienced, who have the same access to the same exact "menu" call the MLS and are much better negotiators than most realtors and who is willing to offer:  $12,500    Buyer Agent Realtor Rebate   Sorry, but the brother's, wife's sister who's a realtor and the nice realtor from their kids' soccer game are both...Out like the fat kids in 5th grade dodge ball!

They listen when spoken to respectfully, belly to belly. 

After inspection, it was found that sewer is in need of major repair (bellies in the line).

At the end of the day this is a belly to belly business you and the ( seller in your case)... no one is going to be there to hold your hand.. and what you say in those split seconds are going to make it or break it for you.its why mentoring for a top end real estate agent that will actually let you go on Sits with them and spend time with them is far more productive than most of these guru's types... 

, credit scores are great, and they have big fat down payments (which could hint at their "real" income that you won't see on tax returns).All the data that I've read says that non-QM is outperforming FHA.

You do not win all the deals but I just want the fat ones.   

My husband was in the restaurant business until he became very ill and it went belly up 3 years ago.

Last year, that investment went belly up, it is now in litigation and they will probably lose their entire investment.
