For example, we have a multifamily deal in the boroughs where the contract rider specifically states if the owner cannot deliver the property by X date, the purchaser can back out with their deposit.If you have some flexibility on the contract, you could continue shopping active deals as backups.

The clear and obvious answer would be to instantly pay the back taxes and offer a small lump sum for them to move with and just lowball in whatever structure works for the both of you weather that is a better sale price or a greater monthly payment to them and just find your middle ground that works out for you both.

I believe WWC and my goals are aligned, however with these high upfront fees, it appears the general partners would do well with or without the asset performing, which risk is there with potential market correction coming.And, I see what you mean, WWC seems to be doing well with their system, so they may be squeezing more juice on deals now b/c they deliver for their investors.
