I have several contacts in new home construction, architecture, land developers and community organizers who help me locate buyers and sellers.

I initially intended to put down $50,000 to get a sellers concession where they would cover closing costs and a 2-1 buy down (we have to put down 10% or more down for the seller to be allowed to give us that that amount concession, around 5.8% off the purchase price of $484,500, seller concessions are capped at 6% with a 10% or more DP).

Home could've settled and nothing further to do or you could be seeing a bigger issue at hand that the seller needs to fix.

Let me know if you're interested and I can share the sellers information.

All is not lost, if you can find a seller of the apartments who is alos willing to finance the purchase for you;  Or look for a private/hard money lender.

This seller feels like he has a good position to turn down people who need to finance.

It's the first question I ask buyers/sellers.

All will be delivered vacant, apparently I missed the piece in my offer that allows the seller to stay in the unit up to 7 days after closing... 

For example, I have two STR high-income earners (making 140k & 150k) in Joshua Tree for sale with low expenses, where the sellers will stay on to manage it.Making sure you are keeping as much as possible from the tax man is a huge component and to do so you usually have to invest it.

Some damage from WDI, which seller will have to address this before close.Seller is paying all closing costs, survey & title, they did a rate buy down to 5.49%, and a year warranty.
