However, there is no inventory whatsoever, because the sellers are still waiting for spring. 

Our contract says: "Buyer shall have up to 15 days before close of escrow (the "inspection period"), which is May 20th, 2016, during which time Buyer will have the absolute right to cancel this contract for any reason whatsoever, in buyer's sole and absolute discretion."

The seller refuse to share any information whatsoever.

@Greg Hamer you may be right, but at this point I have no desire whatsoever to move forward with a seller finance deal that had terms lasting ten years.

and then in a later paragraph, "The owner agrees to hold the Broker harmless from any damage suits in connection with the management of the herein described property and from any liability from injury suffered by any employee or other person whatsoever, and to carry, at the Owner's expense, adequate public liability and, if required by law, workmens compensation insurance to name the Broker as co-insured for the life of this management agreement."

,Many states - as well as Federal statutes - require that you accept the first qualified applicant with no discrimination whatsoever, no matter how many other qualified applications come in later. 

It was like pulling teeth to get information sometimes.

- there are those pesky 'profits' that you paid taxes on.If I worked for the IRS, I'd say: you had 100k in profits, and you were actively involved - some of that should have been paid to you as salary so I could sink my teeth into it.The fact that you chose to re-invest your 100k in profits gives you 100k in 'investment' that you may withdraw later tax-free, but does not exempt you from FICA this year from your 'profit generating activity' in your S-Corp.

they are presented as homes ready to buy with good title and deeds- when there's NO CHANCE of any closing whatsoever, without a recorded deed. this is where it gets ugly.  

I doubt you need to do the QT in CA.. there is NO right of redemption in CA... there is only the right to set the sale aside if the party who lost it can prove that there was not adequate public notice. ( rare as hens teeth).most title companys in CA will insure after 1 years time though.
