She responds with a story that she had to unfortunately move her daughter and grand daughter with her due to some spousal abuse(crazy with the ray rice thing going on) and that they are looking to sell and get down to South Carolina and buy a home closer to some family.  

I'm 53 years old and unfortunately, am limited physically when it comes to working an outside job.

Unfortunately, in this case it appears that I cannot provide the documents from the roommate's end :/  This is out of my control. 

For instance, I want a free sandwich, but unfortunately unless the magic sandwich fairy is going to make one materialize out of thin air, it aint happening (And no @Brandon Turner I'm not going to imagine food like in Hook, that doesn't work..unless you're on bath salts, but then you might be eating someone's face.)Such as mentor requests.

Unfortunately build out is expensive and right after you buy new equipment and it becomes used it drops like a rock in value ( like a car does ).If this location isn't amazing then you could simply go buy your own equipment and start up elsewhere.

might depend on the state, other circumstances, there are states that have HOA super liens so HOA might get paid first before 2nd or first mortgage even. you might go to your local title company and ask for head counsel to explain the local laws regarding foreclosure sale. 

Looks like they are just trying to take advantage of the circumstances now - "strike while the iron is hot" philosophy in play IMO.

Unfortunately, the pizza will never be as good..

But I would also venture a guess that the smaller the deal the smaller your fee will most likely be...but it also depends on the specific circumstances of the seller.

I never heard back from them and the house was still empty 2 months later.Just saying, that sometimes there might be reason for a particular score, that shouldn't really matter to you and it's much better to look at the circumstances of your tenant, than to go by a number.
