Maybe a few at a time, maybe after some milestone, etc.With this many units, the owner is likely looking at a substantial capital gain, so there may be benefits for him to consider this idea, as you would slowly take over instead of all in 1 tax year.Be extra diligent in knowing what you are buying.

I do not get paid until I find them something but I also do not work with flakes who will waste my time.You can always negotiate and pay for a small amount say 300 and then a little more once certain milestones are reached in the funding process.The fact the person says they were successful before with loans and are getting back into it means nothing.

We didn't set milestones or goals, we paid them based on the work they said they had completed, and now we can't pay them anymore because they are 2-3 weeks behind...How should we go about getting the contractor to do $8k in work which was already paid for?
