@Seidy Lasker Wash sale rules apply to stock options if they are deemed "substantially identical" to a security sold at a loss within 30 days, such as options with similar expiration dates or strike prices.

The agreement specifically allowed KeyGlee to use the End Buyer's EMD to secure the underlying contract with the actual seller... and to forfeit that EMD if the End Buyer failed to close.

They sound like regular conversations where the RE professional/investor is genuinely interested in discovering the seller's pain points to help find a solution.All the best!

I bit the bullet and bought into to the Deal Genie with Jerry Norton and Peter Conti.

Some programs are 100% of FMR, some 105% or greater (like the Walker Settlement Voucher in Dallas Housing Authority), some less.

That also perhaps makes people more motivated to sell.  4-5 weeks....that's plenty of time to get a deal done.Good luck.

You would still make a paycheck, right? 

The unique architecture and potential of the property, as well as the money making potential that it had.

We offered 30K under asking and got it under contract, after the inspection we were able to renegotiate another 10K off of the property due to repairs needed.

If the numbers make more sense on the 6 unit, then maybe look into selling your duplex and doing a 1031.
