So I made an offer on a property that will ultimately be a STR and the sellers countered with a higher ask but bond for deed amortized over 30 w/a 5 year balloon.

(Usually 2 years from the offering date and 1 year from the purchase date). 

You could still list it as it should give you the breadth of all offers. 

Including the guru or person offering this program. 

I think an izakaya may work well since they offer a variety of small dishes and most people will be able to find something of their liking.

We're about to sign an offer.

I had tried to offer on another house with a similar price and the builder wouldn't negotiate at all. 2 years later, that house is worth far less and when I saw it in person it was not desirable.

Regardless of what it says did you pitch such a fit about the hours that they might let you leave if you offered to go?

We currently charge less then half of that for a simple tax filing like that, but may not offer the level of advisory and guidance that this person does.

@Amirra Besh If you call any agent, they will typically charge 1 month of rent to find a tenant.Just like in a sales transaction, where the buyer's agent and listing agent split the commission, an agent will offer another agent that brings a tenant 50% of the one-month of rent as commission.Many owners are trying to put pressure on PMCs to lower this fee because they think the monthly management fee should cover at least part, if not all, of this.Here's were penny-pinching owners screw themselves: PMC's will charge lower than the one-month of rent, but they offset it and do NOT tell the owner the negative repercussions!
