This is not uncommon in my area that off market properties get contracted to multiple parties, and the original buyer just gets left out to dry.....they don't even really understand what happened.Hopefully it all just runs smoothly and everyone is nice and friendly and cooperative, but we see so many of these deals fall out or one side or the other feels like they got shafted, it's not always a fun place to be without a trusted advisor on your side, looking out for your best interests.
