I started this refund request process 12/29/23 and it has been extremely frustrating in its' own right, to say nothing of the challenges that prompted the refund request being made in the first place.

Now many escrows will require that the seller sign off on the EMD release, which can be frustrating since most contracts say it should be a unilateral function (buyer automatically gets their EMD back if they cancel within the option period), but if a seller chooses to be a jerk and not sign it, the EMD could be frozen in escrow, so don't use your rent money for it. 

Client ExpectationsClients often have unrealistic expectations, leading to frustration when things don’t go as planned.Solution: Set realistic expectations from the beginning.

@Khyree RandallIt's definitely frustrating in competitive markets like Sacramento, but you’re not necessarily doing anything wrong!

Because of the frustration, when asked to purchase the large lot in front of their house which leads to the main road, they turned it down.

A little frustrated and thinking about being done, we kept the door on the hinges as we finished our last few planes on the bottom corner. 

I get the sellers frustration but we're being put through the ringer by the lender and I just can't jump any higher. 

It's frustrating.

if you buy a random property on Zillow and turn it over to people you have never met, you will very likely lose money, get frustrated, and set yourself back.if you're serious i'd pick a market and plan on making several trips there. 

you need a big funnel for any strategy in which you evaluate leads, and to continuously be ruling deals out - and to be happy you're doing so, not frustrated.
