Keep your cash and rent - the market is only getting better, and cash-is-king right now.It sounds like this seller is going to become more motivated as time goes by, so let some time go, and let the seller know that if he wants to subsidize some of his negative payment, then you might be open to something...

You are in a grey spot due to titling yourself as either a 3rd party investor or a foreclosure rescue consultant.CASH IS KING!

We are closer to Kings than Walnut.
