Does it have to be an owner occupied buyer?

If you pick up just one side you could file for a partition lawsuit to split your portion from the whole or try to hunt down the other party to make a deal or get them to agree to partition the whole.   

Again, be a problem solver, not a house buyer.

First-time home buyers, they were able to take advantage of a program that provides financial assistance in hard-hit areas.

Building an ever growing buyers list.

I understand the disclosure of such information to any prospective buyers but I'm interested in receiving input from agents and investors who may have some insights on the pros and cons of pursuing this type of an investment.

This way your current home became an asset.As for repairs - it the order to sell it, you will have to fix the issues because buyers do have their inspection as well. 

If they have an Exclusive Right-To-Buy Listing Contract (aka Buyer Agency documents) in place, I have an obligation to present them every deal that matches their criteria in that agreement.

@Carlos PenaYes, either buyer or seller can "change mind" after signing contract.However, contracts are legally binding so there are consequences if both parties don't agree to the change, usually financial penalties.Check with your local real estate attorney to know what the consequences are with your particular contract and whether it is worth your time and expense to enforce the contract as signed.

@Kenneth LizSo at a stand still with money and hunger trying to figure out the next step.First of all don't be so hungry you become a motivated buyer.
