I just received two different verbal offers that I'm willing to accept, but don't want to waste time with someone whose deal may fall through.What are my options to enter into a contract with someone who is qualified?

Also, I've always wondered why arbitragers don't negotiate an option to buy upfront?

I do agree with @Jules Aton though, the best option may be to wait and save up for your down payment.

I'm happy to discuss it further with you (I have appointments this morning, but will be back after lunch) and there are a ton of options now.

The truth is that if you find the right deal, you can make pretty much any market work but if you are looking for consistent deal success that narrows your options down.Some investors look for simple signs like the "Chick-Fil-A" test.

Another option is to estimate value based on potential income and market cap rates, which can give you an investor’s perspective.

I have done my research on setting up the proper entity structure in the US and Canada but I really confused about all the options available LP, LLP, C-corp, S-corp.

There's so many options but they all do the same thing (more or less).

Have been exploring other options as well.
