Personally, I think we need to do whatever it takes to satisfy customer demands.

Apparently they were satisfied w/ leases, low ltv on collateral propert and good credit.

Only to finish the basement a bit more and the attic which are basically done.Thanks,  I understand the down payment concern, but will the existing property appraise for enough money to satisfy equity requirements?

It is my understanding that if we, the buyers, are not satisfied with the inspection report, we can walk away and get our EMD back (we can refuse to lift the inspection contingency).

there are services like earthclassmail and regus that will let you buy an address and mail service in the states. i do not know if that will satisfy your needs but could be a start. 

‘As-Is’ is acceptable position to be in, statement for future buyer “to satisfy themselves research into potential un-permitted yadayada” 

I have roots here, my wife has family nearby, and we are mostly satisfied with our neighborhood.I think this is a GOOD thing for investors.

@Michael Chalke depending on how long they've lived in the property, New York law dictates that you need to either provide a 30, 60 or possibly 90 day termination notice, so if your notice did not satisfy that you'll have to start over.

Can you arrange with the IRS to grab the proceeds from the sale once the state tax liens are satisfied (assuming they are sufficient to satisfy the federal lien with all of its interest and fees)? 

I've heard of people not wanting to move their family to the property so they switch their mailing address to the property for a given time to satisfy the VA loan requirements while leaving their family at the house/apt.
