Or any other tactics that will help get the ball rolling for me and the potential seller?

But get that ball rolling now

I had an exercise I had them go through similar to what I'm suggesting for you. 

I have another that will offer a better price, but when it comes to negotiation of the price or repairs plays hard ball if the seller isn't willing to work with them - I put him in the matcher.3.

I personally think rates are going to keep going down until Septemberish, but I don’t have a crystal ball to be sure.

I once had a tenant a tennis ball in the pipe somehow, cost me 2 grand.But this is quite extreme.I would certainly take videos and pictures of everything and talk to an attorney on possible options.

I know there's no crystal ball into what the future holds... but I'm also doing my best to educate myself/seek advice.I would love to hear from the community about this subject!

You've got to hit the pavement to find the value, either through discussing with wholesalers or working off of aged MLS properties that might be ripe for a low-ball offer.

I have contacted a couple lenders to see where they're at right now and what they expect in the future, but I suppose nobody has a crystal ball....

@AP HorvathNo one has a crystal ball, so all answers will have inherent inaccuracies.
