Because, even if I can't make a deal with her(and I found out that another investor has already approached her and she rejected whatever deal he had) i'd still like to help her out even if it's just to show her her options.Brian

If a person's references didn't check out (which includes dog references), that's another reason to reject them. 

IF the tenant answer "NO" to both and I find out differently, it's an automatic reject.

Don't be surprised if he rejects your idea and be prepared to accept his decision because it's his property.

I cause 0 problems and no one has ever rejected me in real life... up to you though, just get his info and run him through sex offender database... tell him you have other folks looking too and you will get back to him... then you can just run a search on him yourself in google i'm sure. some people just don't trust s*** I'm one of them and i don't trust anything but my 2 dogs and my wife... so yeah he could be a good dude lolEdit: With that said if it was my property I wouldn't take him.

I was unaware of who to talk to if he rejects releasing us from the contract.

To make matters worse, my tenant received an email stating that their rent was rejected, so they logged onto ERP and made an additional one-time payment on 10/20, which I never received.

I took the offer from a flipper friend of about $70K and shut the offer off  early thereby rejecting the offer of $72,000 by the adjoining property owner.  

I was very happy to sit at home and take care of my family members.last day I had a call from the company saying that you are rejected by the company which made me shocked because we had all the bills on the queue.

Just keep plugging along and you will do great, just remember its a business, its not personal if they reject your offer.
