This deal has more hair on it than just QCD:original owners were foreclosed upon by Fanny Mae;then the property was transferred or sold by Fanny to this bank;the bank has been sitting on it for 4 years and finally decides to sell, butin addition to QCD they want cash only (not even hard money);10% earnest money deposit - I have no problem with it if I can get it back in case the deal does not work out - but they allow forno option period and no contingencies of any kind!
