I agree with Andrew’s comments particularly because this is a home you personally lived in and know intimately.

I will reach out to you personally, please keep an eye out in your inbox.

@Georgy CherkasskyIf you truly desire to become financially independent you should learn from the experienced, successful posters on this forum instead of “shooting the messenger”.  

I’m the last person who should complain about grammar, but these are yellow flags, at best.

Quote from @Havital Miltz: I do not know that if someone is in the hospital you can force them to close, I am not an attorney, but I doubt any court will find in your favor, closings do not always happen exactly on the day that is planned, even if everyone is healthy and well, the wholesaler here is not the reason for the delay so I am not sure what exactly you can sue him/her for, they are also being held up due to the seller not being wellJust give the person some time to get out of the hospital, closing will probably not happen the very next day either, this is really extenuating circumstance. 

This means, on average, that this person is facing foreclosure or bankruptcy, and has no other reasonable options.

Initially I didn't have a personal connection to the area and didn't know much about the city.

Typically someone who was communicative turns distant, unresponsive, blows you off when you're trying to talk to them in person, and the tall tale sign of boxes in the hallway.

Some operator takes some pity on me and says I can do some of this expedited and in person but only at Lake Zurich, Mount Prospect or Springfield walk in. 

Another route is to find somebody who's experienced and raise money for their deals.
