@John Soforic undefinedI am in a similar situation, getting ready to install 57 windows in a new project in February.

It may be that they are just hoping and praying for a miracle buyer and that they are no where near ready to sell.

That's my main focus now.When I'm ready to retire from the flipping/spec job, my plan is to acquire long term rentals (mostly commercial) that; 1) require little management from me, 2) great locations with better chances of appreciation, 3) Have lower yields because of the first two points.

I'm not sure if I am CCIM ready as of now, but the other options are appeasing!

I'm buying some secondary liens that are ready for foreclosure but have enough penalty in them to give a decent return if they are redeemed.

I'm in the phase of being a bit overwhelmed & not ready to act, but I'm formulating a plan.

I know this is broad and I'm trying to do everything I can in the next year to educate myself and make sure I am ready to invest, weather that means taking classes, getting some hands on experience or partnering with someone for my first deal using my funds and giving them a percentage of the proceeds.

Explain to them that due to your strategy you are not ready yet to sell the property but if they came up with a 10k option payment to buy in 12 months, you can start to re-deploy the capital in another area, while still collecting rent.

I know pictures were taken of the property after the police were in the property after a break-in but when I requested the photos, they told me I would get pictures after the tenant is evicted.At the end of the day, I'm not ready to bail on the property but I'm not confident that this is the right management company either.

Maybe target home owners that are ready to move into retirement homes.
