I will explain much of my plan and I can show you what I have accomplished as well as my general idea and goals for next year.

For on market deals, explain to listing agents that they would still get paid for the transaction out of your down payment to the buyer.

Can you explain what happened and why?

First, explain who you are and that you are calling with reference check questions.

They didn't reply to messages explaining that there is new owner's and with said exchange of information.

@Jyotin GautamYou might be able to do it as you have explained it without being licensed, but if you are going to start a business of making referrals/finders fees, why limit yourself?

I went back to the seller and explained the situation.

They may make unreasonable complaints about me and then I find myself patiently explaining the terms of the lease again and why things are the way they are.  

My agent explained that the seller was elderly and needed the funds to move out on time, which made sense to me.

If I've said it once, I've said it 1000 times: don't include a clause in your lease if you don't understand it or are unwilling to enforce it.I recommend you politely explain your perspective, then ask her to work with you to help market the property and find a new renter.
