I would also highly recommend an atty unless you are experienced in evictions/negotiations.

If not, ask if there is some payment incentive that would encourage tenant to sign early termination and be out by settlement, then negotiate who would pay it, you or the seller.  

No real legal implications though, and the FREC or the Board won't get involved in "negotiation tactics" complaints.

I don't expect for the agent to physically show me the property early on but, my thought process is, I do want to see more information(expenses, etc) on the building prior to negotiations.  

Sure, that number can be negotiated based on further investigation into the property (contingencies).

And also, is the price that is listed for a property ever negotiable , Or is it pretty much set in stone , and the price you see, is the price you'll pay to purchase it ?

Sometimes you don't negotiate hard enough, get bad loan terms, work with poor contractors, forget to look at the expenses and CapEx with a critical eye, and the list goes on. 

I negotiated to have the seller pay for literally every aspect of the house buying process for me.

I explained that I negotiated the purchase of a note once but didn't have too much experience. 

ThanksGreg You didn't specify the upside nor speak of a value add play in the deal so it's a little difficult to speculate how to best structure a creative financing package.Assuming it's a value add play with good risk adjusted gains at the end of the process then maybe the safest route is to negotiate a wrap transaction with the seller, and if your are concerned about a due on sale clause make it contingent on the lenders approval.The seller will confront these same financing scenario issues with all other buyers so if they want to sell the property then they can either deal with the issue with a reset and able buyer, you, or kick the can down the line looking for another buyer who maybe willing to assume a less than stellar financing package.As the buyer though your only concern should be the financing package that delivers you title, assuming you plan on making extensive improvements to the property, and allows you to earn what you determine is a reasonable cash flow from the project.Options aren't bankable.
