Time table is 30 - 50 days now.

We've been working on one for almost a year and we have FMV offer pending on the table.

He wanted to use my end buyer's earnest money and I can't get ahold of them because it's so late but I have looked at the deal and there is a lot on the table so I would like to put the $1k earnest money up to be part of the deal.

Some thoughts to consider: Is the seller shopping around for a better offer, leveraging the fact that he has your offer on the table?

Looks like if you sold them both for the prices you mention you and your ex would need to bring about $8K to the table, $4K each.

I would like to see if you have done similar deals in the past, whether you bring any skills to the table other than just identifying the property, whether investors you have dealt with in the past have generally had a good experience in their dealings with you after they had invested, etc.2.

I agree using the Assessed Value is a Joke and I'm not sure exactly why he brought that to the table.

As it has been said, BAD things happen when GOOD people DO NOTHING.Even Jesus, in the Bible, knew there were times you needed to use violence: John 2:14-15And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting :And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;War is inevitable.

I'd negotiate a split with the other wholesaler in exchange for bringing your buyer to the table.

Then I would clone myslef to be at two poker tables!
