Obviously, I am completely unfamiliar with the Pittsburgh RE market. edit: A note - my family is based in SD and I have the intentions of coming back to SoCal a few years down the road. 

There is one here, but has different intentions.

Needless to say we no longer have any intentions of finishing the basement but have at least resolved the source of the issue and the system can now work the way it was designed.

I have no intent of selling them, really it's just a fun place for me to play around learning to use a tractor and backhoe and make the land a little nicer for me to enjoy.

:)I talked to the lawyer and he said that the tenant had no intention of moving out and no intention of not paying rent.

My seller financed offers are very broad stroke and generic with a Letter of Intent (LOI).I offer 3 scenarios - 1) cash out (lowest price), closing in 45-60 days.Or 2) seller financing (10-20% down, market rates, $x/mo pmt) at cash out price + about 10%, closing in 14 days or when they choose. 

To obtain financial independents you need to get established in a conventional W2 and work on getting your credit repaired.If you are waiting to inherit and have no intention of working for a living you may have to couch surf and panhandle.The only way to truly get established is through hard work. 

So, you have the moral dilemma of promising to buy the house with no intention or ability to close.

If you are just looking with no intentions to buy then the brokers likely will not give you the time of day.

I usually buy low with no intention of selling unless the profit is golden.
