You could mark the price of the purchase to $127k and offer maybe a 10-15k furniture allowance as incentive or maybe some type of "legal" lien on the property by a third party that must be paid at closing.

Work will be moving some large furniture--beds, sofa, fridge, stove, computer table, washer/dryer.

I going to assume you mean interior decorator or furniture stager?

I offered to pay seller 750/month P+I with ZERO headaches ; ) Cost me 1400 dollars to close total. 20k worth of rehab into it, added 8k or so in furniture and it's now operating as an airbnb. 850/month CF What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Is there a way to utilize some of the $125k for furnishing(furniture and housewares) and upgrades to the property (new flooring, paint, pool)? 

So, I've looked at many REOs and they have all had the Appliances removed; I always assumed that the previous owners took them to salvage what they could before the foreclose.Recently there was a property in my neighborhood that was being foreclosed on and when the tenants moved out some contractors came in to clean it out; I noticed that not only did they clear out the furniture and other items left behind they also removed all the fairly new appliances from the property as well.I don't understand why the bank would do this...

I love seeing neighboring properties close to where I want to buy with bad photos, average mismatched furniture and decor yet well occupied calendars.

We are finding furniture and trash being dump at our trash site that does not belong to tenant that live at the apt complex.

If you don't plan on hanging out at their office, why would you want to subsidize fancy offices, furniture, etc. for those that do?   

It becomes more than moving furniture in a day or two ahead of time.
